Kinetic Theory (Particle Theory, Mixtures and Solutions, Separating Mixtures) - Complete Module - Distance Learning and Homeschool KS3

Three action-packed distance or remote learning packages which cover the kinetic theory of matter (particle theory), mixtures and solutions and separating mixtures.

Each resource has been designed so that the animated PowerPoint replaces the teacher by providing structure, sequence, knowledge and answers. It gives advice on how to use distance learning successfully and guides the learner step-by-step through the topic. The supporting worksheets include guided notes, cut-outs, foldables digital quick-tests, fact sheets and progress checks to provide a familiar medium for students to develop and test their knowledge and to continue to develop their literacy skills and use their creativity to organise their learning and assess their progress.

What’s Covered

• Three states of matter are solid, liquid and gas.
• Arrangement of particles in solids, liquids and gases.
• Properties of solids, liquids and gases in terms of the arrangement of their particles.
• Change of state including sublimation.
• Pressure in gases and the effect of increasing the number of particles and temperature and decreasing volume.
• Diffusion.
• Elements and compounds are pure substance and mixtures are not.
• Meaning of the terms solute, solvent, solution, soluble and insoluble.
• Particle theory to explain why stirring, temperature and particle size affect the rate of dissolving.
• Particle theory to explain dissolving, suspensions and saturated solutions.
• Extracting information from solubility curves
• The composition and physical properties of mixtures
• Evaporation to dryness and crystallisation
• Distillation
• Fractional distillation
• Filtration
• Chromatography
