A lesson on writing rate equations and determining order from a rate equation and data. Lesson also covers mechanisms and how a mechanism can be determined from a rate equation. Designed for the new OCR A level specification.

Two Power Points on rates of reaction for the new OCR A level specification. The first covers how rates are measured, why the rate will change over time and how to calculate a tangent. The second set of slides covers what is a catalyst, homogenous v. heterogenous catalysts and why using a catalyst is good for the environment. There are enough slides for 1 lesson .

A lesson that covers what a limiting reagent is, how to find the limiting reagent from masses (this is also found in the combined science specification), how to find the limiting reagent from the volume and concentration of solutions (separate chemistry) and how to find the limiting reagent from gas volumes (separate chemistry). This lesson is designed for the Edexcel 9-1 specification, separate chemistry and covers higher only content.

A lesson on reactivity trends in the rate of hydrolysis of haloalkanes designed for the OCR AS chemistry specification. The lesson goes over impact of changing the halogen on the rate of hydrolysis and contains a practical for the students to investigate the rate of hydrolysis. The presentation contains questions for students to work through on slides, so no printing is needed.

A lesson covering haloalkanes and the ozone layer designed for the OCR AS chemistry specification. The lesson goes why the ozone layer is important, what CFCs are and their uses and the free radical reactions between CFCs and NO and ozone. The presentation contains questions (and answers) for students to work through on slides, so no printing is needed.
