A presentation to teach the halogens section of the new AQA chemistry A level. Topics include: Properties Redox Reactions Chemical tests Uses of chlorine

I made this Powerpoint for a revision course for A2 chemists in Easter. It is specifically designed for OCR Salters B Chemistry. The topics that it covers are: - Transition metals and ligands. - Rates of reaction calculations. - Redox Calculations. - Equilibrium. - pH calculations and buffer solutions. - Arenes and azo dyes. = Polymer properties. N.B. If I have used anyone else's content inappropriately pleases notify me and I shall rectify. I have certainly used content gained else-ware as well as my own - please notify me so I can give credit where it is due.

As the title says - "dingbats" for structure and bonding keywords (GCSE or A Level chemistry). The answers are in the notes below the slides. Tweet me @Mr_S_WHSG if you want dingbats for any other topics - I genuinely enjoy making them!

Designed for Salters AS This worksheet is useful for any teacher trying to get pupils to think about the affects of bonding and intermolecular forces on polymers.

Here I have designed a task for A-level pupils to analyse and decipher the structures of 8 molecules. They are given the empirical formula, the MS, the IR and the H1NMR. This is all the information they require. The answers are below: 1. Ethanol 2. Propionic acid 3. Acetone 4. Methyl propionate 5. Ethyl acetate 6. Ethanal 7. Toluene 8. 2-Butanol. * In the answers I haven't necessarily used the IUPAC names. Tweet me @Mr_S_WHSG if I have made any errors!

I used this as a stretch activity for top year 10's. It is a problem solving activity that requires an understanding of the concepts of ionic and covalent bonding. Encourages pupils to apply their knowledge! ( The answers are X = Sodium, Y = Carbon and Z = Chlorine). P.S. I know that some of the statements are not necessarily true, but they are for the purpose of GCSE chemistry!

This tarsia covers a variety of chemical word equations - designed with OCR 21st century science C6 in mind. If pupils finish it quickly you could extend by getting them to write balanced symbol equations for the word equations in the tarsia.

Designed for AQA C2, this is a structure and bonding task, including polymers. Each pupil has a sheet, and they have to go around the class and find different people that explain the answer to each question. Kind of like bingo. Then once someone has finished they come to you, and in front of the class have to answer random questions from the grid correctly to win.

This is a Powerpoint that served as part of a revision session I ran with A2 chemists. I used 'molymods,' and they had to makes transitions between all the functional groups in the Powerpoint using and molymods, whilst suggesting reagents. Tweet @Mr_S_WHSG

A starter to get year 12 or 13 thinking laterally about alkenes. Ansers ion the comments under the slide. Tweet me @Mr_S_WHSG for more dingbats.

This formed part of an A2 revion session of model exam questions. Exam questions answered surrounded: Colour in transition metal complexes. Recrystallisation. Titrations. Concentrations & colorimetry. N.B. The maths in chemistry section applies to the calculations for A-Level chemistry book by Jim Clark of 'chemguide.com' http://www.amazon.co.uk/Calculations-AS-A-Level-Chemistry/dp/0582411270.
