An A-Level Chemistry resource on redox titration calculations. The editable worksheet is differentiated with each section increasing in difficulty. Students complete titration calculations based on the redox chemistry of potassium permanganate, sodium dichromate, sodium thiosulfate etc. The resource contains one of every type of titration question they need to answer in an exam. Answers are included. Worksheet takes a double lesson for students to complete.
A knowledge organiser on the GCSE Chemistry topic of electrolysis. Is suitable for the new AQA GCSE 2018 syllabus (from the chapter “Chemical changes”). Contains information on electrolysis of molten ionic compounds like lead bromide, the electrolysis of aluminium oxide and also the electrolysis of aqueous solutions like sodium chloride (brine.) Includes explanations on what happens at the electrodes (oxidation/reduction), the ionic equations involved, and for aqueous solutions, explanations of why we get hydrogen instead of the metal if the metal is the most reactive etc.
A GCSE Chemistry knowledge organiser on the reactivity series and extraction of metals. Relevant for the new AQA GCSE 2018 syllabus. Includes content on the reactivity series, dsplacement reactions, ionic equations, extraction of metals (using carbon and hydrogen) and separating salts using evaporation or recrystalisation.
A bundle of resources on the atmosphere. A rank the definition activity encourages class discussion on how to define the atmosphere. Also included, a group relay activity where students in their groups have to answer questions on how the Earth's atmosphere has changed from the past till present. Students answer each question in turn and can only have a go at the next question once the teacher has confirmed their answer is correct. The group quickest to complete the questions are the winners. Students love these relay activities, it encourages competition and team work and typically takes 10 mins to complete.
A comprehensive mind map on organic synthesis which students can use to revise the theory Students can use the resource to produce routes for organic synthesis required in A-Level Chemistry exams.
A Christmas advent calendar activity on atomic structure. Is an editable Power Point file with revision questions on the GCSE chemistry atomic structure. There are 25 revision questions in the form of an advent calendar. Could be used as a starter or a plenary quiz. Just click on the screen and the next numbered question appears.
Structure strips for the AQA GCSE Chemistry topic “Atomic structure”. Structure strips go into the margin of an exercise book and students write in their answers beside the question. This is one of a series of structure strips that I have made for the new 2017 GCSE specification. Each strip has 29 questions and answers are included.
Structure strips for the AQA GCSE Chemistry topic “Structure and bonding”. Structure strips go into the margin of an exercise book and students write in their answers beside each question. This is one of a series of structure strips that I have made for the new 2017 GCSE specification. There are 45 questions in this set and answers are included.
A challenging activity on the A-Level chemistry topic group 2 metals. Students have to link the keywords about group 2 in the hexagons together. Helps students make connections between the reactions, ionisation energy and reactivity. It is challenging and really gets students thinking about how the chemistry connects together. Takes about 20 mins to complete and answers are included. Is an excellent activity as it really challenges students knowledge of group 2.
