A lesson on controlling equilibrium for OCR A Level Chemistry. Lesson covers how Kc and Kp stay the same with changes to concentration and pressure and how Kc and Kp change with temperature. Questions and answers on slides – no printing required.

A Powerpoint presentation introducing alkenes and addition reactions from the OCR new A-level specification. Lesson covers the reactivity of alkenes v alkanes, what an addition reaction is and introduces key concepts needed to understand addition reactions – electrophile, curly arrow and heterolytic fission. First of a series of 3 lessons on addition in alkenes. Contains questions on slides, so no printing required.

A Powerpoint presentation covering addition of HX and halogens from the OCR new A-level specification. Lesson covers the trends in carbocation stability, addition of halogens (including mechanism) and addition of HX (mechanism and Markownikoff’s Rule). Second of a series of 3 lessons on addition in alkenes. Contains questions on slides, so no printing required.

A worksheet covering moles and concentration calculations for separate chemistry, higher paper, Edexcel 9-1. Includes relative formula mass, concentration (g/dm3), concentration (mol/dm3), moles, and moles to particles calculations. Useful as a revision tool.

A lesson on nanoparticles for Edexcel 9-1 separate sciences. Covers what a nanoparticle is, uses of them and how to compare sizes of particles and how to calculate the surface to volume ratio of a nanoparticle. Includes tasks and exam questions on slides for students. No printing required.

A lesson on condensation polymers designed for the Edexcel 9-1 separate science specification. The Power Point covers how polyesters are formed, it compares condensation polymers with addition polymers and address problems with disposal of polymers.

A Power Point lesson for the early and changing atmosphere. For Edexcel GCSE 9-1 spec. Covers what gases are in the atmosphere and how the formation of oceans and plants changed the atmosphere.

A lesson on alloys designed for the Edexcel 9-1 separate science specification. The lesson covers what an alloy is, why alloys are stronger than pure metals and the properties and uses of alloys. Contains factsheets and a table for students to fill in and exam questions to complete.

A lesson on metallic bonding designed for the Edexcel 9-1 spec. Covers the properties of metals, what metallic bonding is and explanations of the properties of metals.

A lesson on yield and atom economy designed for the Edexcel 9-1 separate science specification. This lesson goes over how to calculate per cent yield, factors influencing yield and how to calculate atom economy. Contains slides with calculations for students to carry out, with the steps and answers appearing with a click. No printing required.

A lesson on anion tests (sulfate, carbonate and halide) designed for the Edexcel 9-1 separate science specification. The Power Point covers how to carry out all 3 sets of tests. No printing required.

A lesson covering reacting mass calculations (using moles) with a 1:1 ratio, reacting masses with a 2:1 ratio (hasn’t normally come up but was on the Year 10 paper), what is a limiting reagent and calculating the limiting reagent from grams. Designed for the Edexcel 9-1 spec and contains higher only content. Contains exam questions on the slides or as a worksheet in a word document, so you can decide whether or not to print out the main task. All of the lesson can be done without printing.

A lesson on cracking designed for the Edexcel 9-1 spec. The lesson covers what cracking is, why cracking is needed and the products of cracking.
