This lesson describes in the form of an introduction presentation what a catalyst is and how it performs its function by lowering the activation energy of a reaction. Designed for KS4 Chemistry.

This lesson is in the form of a presentation outlining how students can create Lewis dot cross diagrams to determine chemical bonding in simple compounds. The presentation also includes student activities to test understanding.

This activity is divided into 4 parts each activity involved one of the components of rates of reactions - size, concentration, temperature and catalysts. The activity involves graphing data and then explaining the plot using rates of reaction theory. Students graph data and then apply this information to collision theory to explain observed data. The activity also includes hint sheets to assist students.

A series of activities that guide the students through completing and writing chemical word equations for acid neutralization reactions. displacement and synthesis reactions to be used in series. Designed for junior high school level.

This A-level powerpoint presentation outlines to students electrochemical cells. In particular, the formation of said cells and the rules associated with writing them.

This quick introduction allows students to understand the concept of dynamic equilibrium includes an animation to explain the concept.

This A-level powerpoint presentation outlines how the atomic radii of the elements change across the periods and down the groups and discuss the reasons and justifications for these trends.

The presentation is to be done over two lessons. The first lesson goes over lab safety with an activity involving finding potential dangers in the lab. The next lesson involves the use of a bunsen burner to test for metals. The latter lesson involves students getting a bunsen burner drivers license by following safety steps. Once attained they test solid salt samples by the flame test. The other activity includes labelling the bunsen burner and using terms in sentences to reinforce learning. The learning objectives for both lessons are outlined in the presentation.

This resource is designed to practise graphing skills and data analysis around chemistry rates of reactions. Also designed to develop student understanding of results obtained using collision theory. The exercise consists of activities where students develop understanding of the 4 different ways to change rates of reaction - concentration, temperature, catalysts and surface area.

This activity is similar to dominoes, just this time with 3 sides! The students cut out the trionimoes and try and build shapes by match sides to each other. The game has three levels of difficulty depending on the level of students. Questions are based on atomic structure and bonding as well as the periodic table

Excellent revision tool for rates of reaction. In pairs, students cut out both sides of the cards and glue them together. Then as one asks the question the other tries to answer it. If you get an answer right, you keep the card. The one with the most cards wins! Designed for KS4 Chemistry.

5 tasks the form of an assignment consisting of a series of questions designed to test student understanding of atomic structure and how the periodic table is designed. Developed to investigate the first 20 elements and linking their atomic structure to the properties of these elements. Describe how the properties of the first 20 elements link to their position on the periodic table.

This booklet is designed to test student understanding of the periodic table and in particular, groups 1 and 7. The activities in the form of questions and practical exercises are designed to link electronic structure with the properties of the elements. Balancing of equations and explantation of experimental results is also involved.

This activity is in the form of a word documents outlining questions designed to to test student understanding of the elements of group 1 and group 7. The questions are designed to link the chemical and physical properties of these elements with their electronic configuration and position on the periodic table.

The presentation is to be done over two lessons. The first lesson goes over lab safety with an activity involving finding potential dangers in the lab. The next lesson involves the use of a bunsen burner to test for metals. The latter lesson involves students getting a bunsen burner drivers license by following safety steps. Once attained they test solid salt samples by the flame test. The other activity includes labelling the bunsen burner and using terms in sentences to reinforce learning. The learning objectives for both lessons are outlined in the presentation.

This activity develops students understanding of balancing charges in ionic salts. The students print out the activity, cut out the shapes and the recombine to determine the formulae of different ionic salts by balancing charge and making sure jigsaw is correct. Designed for KS3 and KS4 Science.

In this activity to help revise chemical energetics (kinetics, reaction rates, equilibrium, enthalpy, exothermic, endothermic reactions and collision theory) the students create flash cards with the answer on one side and question on the other. This requires students to cut and paste on cardboard to create cards.

This activity allows students to create revision flash cards for organic chemistry - naming molecules, reagents, reactants and products of organic reactions. Designed for senior chemistry KS4 and 5.

Lesson designed for senior chemistry focusing on the differences and similarities of ionic and covalent bonding. Lesson is in the form of a presentation which is interspersed with student activities to reinforce learning.

A plenary to let students think about how different elements combine in chemical bonding. In the form of a power point presentation. Linked to chemical bonding in senior chemistry. The students have to consider how electrons are either shared or taken in a chemical bond.
