This is a complete lesson covering section 5.1.2 b, c, d and e of module 5 the OCR A level chemistry course- calculating Kc. It remind students what Kc and how to calculate it when given the data. It then covers deriving the units for Kc and the two types of equilibria (homogeneous and heterogeneous). The lesson closes with how to calulate Kc directly from experimental results including the use of titrations to establish concentration. The lesson includes a starter, full notes, worked examples, lots of student practice and a differentiated summary at the end All answers provided

This is a complete lesson covering section 5.1.2 a-e of module 5 of the OCR Chemistry specification- The equilibrium constant Kp in gaseous equilibria. It remind students of the difference between homogeneous and heterogeneous equiliibria and how to calculate both mole fractions and partial pressues. It then demonstrates how to uses these figures to calculate Kp and it associated units. in a cross curricular link it also looks at oxygen transport and the role of equilibria with haemoglobin. The lesson includes a starter, full detailed notes, lots of student led activities and a differentiated summary at the end. All answers provided

A full lesson covering section 6.2.4 a-d of the OCR Chemistry specification- making carbon-carbon bonds. The lesson starts by looking at why we need to form new carbon-carbon bonds. It then looks at the reactions with haloalkanes and acyl chlorides and the reaction mechanisms behind both. The lesson then looks at the reactions of the nitriles and how they can be used in organic synthesis. The final part of the lesson looks at the reactions with benzene and how additional side chains can be added. There are lots of student independent tasks and all answers are provided I aim to reduce photocopying so all activities are within the PPT (32 slides in total)
