A lesson on rates and the Boltzmann Distribution for the new OCR A level specification. The lesson reviews the factors that impact a rate of reaction (concentration, temperature, pressure, surface area) and then goes over how to draw Boltzmann distributions for different conditions (e.g. different temperatures). All questions are on the slide so no printing required.

Two Power Points covering Hess Cycles (enough content for a lesson and a half). The slides cover writing equation for enthalpy of formation, calculating enthalpy changes given a Hess Cycle and drawing Hess Cycles using enthalpies of formation and combustion. Questions are provided for students to do on the slide so no printing required. Designed for the OCR A Level specification – Module 2.

A lesson introducing amines and amides designed for the new OCR A level spec. Includes classifying amines/amides as primary, secondary or tertiary, alphiatic vs aromatic amines, naming amines and amides and reactions of amines as bases to form salt. Includes questions on slides for students to work through – no printing required.

Includes a summary Power Point of the 20 key calculations for Edexcel 9-1 higher separate chemistry. Also includes 3 sets of worksheets on the 20 key calculations to go with Power Point. Bronze has 20 questions in the same order as the slides, Silver has 20 but in random order and Gold has more complicated calculations. Can set as homework or use in a revision 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 reacting oxidation and reduction. Designed for Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Certificate in Applied Science Unit 1 (Principles and Applications of Science I). Lesson covers assigning oxidation states, the meaning of oxidation and reduction and how to identify what has been oxidised or reduced in a reaction. Includes questions for students to complete on the slides. No printing required.

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 materials for the Edexcel 9-1 separate sciences specification. Covers the properties of different materials (ceramics, composites, glass) and asks students to choose the best material for a given use from data provided. Includes exam questions or exam-style questions on the slides. No printing required.

Includes a Power Point presentation that reviews all of the core practicals from Edexcel 9-1 combined science. There are a few slides per practical that briefly summarises it and then question and answer slides for the students to complete. An exam questions for each practical is included. Resource also includes 40 marks of exam questions on the core practicals to set as a test/homework. I have not used any of the exam questions from the sample papers so this resource can be used as a revision for mocks.

A bronze/silver/gold starter for alkali metals GCSE Chemistry designed for the Edexcel 9-1 spec.

A selection of 10 starters with answers on the following slide. Useful for Year 12 or Year 13 revision. These slides review of all of module 4 in the OCR A level specification. The slides cover the basics (key words, naming, reagents) and the harder tasks (e.g. mechanisms and formation of pi-bonds) to engage students of all abilities.

A collection of 8 starters from the second half of Module 3 for OCR A level chemistry. Each starter contains a bronze/silver/gold task on the topic and an answer slide with all the answers provided. The 8 starters are: electron arrangement (orbitals/shells), electronic configuration, ionic bonding, covalent bonding, shapes of molecules, electronegativity and polarity, intermolecular forces and properties of water/covalent compounds.

A lesson on aldehydes and ketones designed for the new OCR A level spec. Includes a review of naming aldehydes and ketones, why C=O undergoes nucleophilic addition, mechanism for the reaction and reactions of carbonyls with NaBH4 and CN. Includes questions on slides for students to work through – no printing required.

A lesson that covers Kc for the new OCR A level specification. The lesson goes over how to write an equation for Kc from a balanced equation, how to calculate Kc from equilibrium concentration, units for Kc, how to calculate Kc from starting concentration and how Kc tells you which side the equilibrium lies. Questions and answers on slides – no printing required.

A lesson on the reactivity of metals. Designed for Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Certificate in Applied Science Unit 1 (Principles and Applications of Science I). Lesson reviews displacement, reactions of metals with water and acid (includes balancing equations) and periodic trends in reactivity. Includes questions for students to complete on the slides. No printing required.

A lesson on intermolecular forces. A Year 12 BTEC lesson designed for Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Certificate in Applied Science Unit 1 (Principles and Applications of Science I). Lesson covers electronegativity, bond polarity, dipoles and types of intermolecular forces. Includes questions for students to do on the slides. No printing required.

A lesson on metallic bonding. A Year 12 BTEC lesson designed for Pearson BTEC Level 3 National Certificate in Applied Science Unit 1 (Principles and Applications of Science I). Lesson covers what a metallic bond is, an explanation of the properties of metals and factors that impact the strength of a metallic bond. Includes questions for students to do on the slides. No printing required.
