A pair of lessons covering sections 5.2.3 f-i of the OCR Chemistry specification- electrode potentials The first lesson starts by looking at what half-cells are, how they are formed and the importance of salt bridges. It also covers how they can be used to measure standard electrode potentials. The lesson then covers half equations and using them to calculate the voltage of a electrochemical cell. The second lesson looks at the feasibility of reactions and how they can be predicted using half-cells. It also looks at the limitations of using electrode potentials to predict reactions Both lessons include lots of student independent work tasks and all answers are included I am to reduce photocopying so all activties are in the PPTs (30 slides and 25 slides each)

A full revision lesson based around the OCR A level physics course module 4- electricity. It includes a number of exam questions, a variety of short answer questions to check the recall of equations and other key facts, and a section covering circuit symbols. The exam questions build on each other allowing students to practice key skills adding a layer of difficulty each time. All answers included.

A PDF covering an 11 week revision plan covering all the topics in the OCR A Chemistry A level specification. Each week includes a blank mind map, a PLC for the specification points covered and exam questions. Each week there is either a retrieval quiz or a revision place mat to complete.
