A set of 128 printable flash cards suitable for the AQA A-Level Chemistry topic of Organic chemistry. Questions cover theory on the naming, sketching of displayed, structural and skeletal formulae, fractional distillation, cracking, reforming, oxidation, combustion, hydrogenation, electrophilic addition, inductive effect, polymerisation etc. Covers all the informtion they need to know about introductory chemistry on the alkanes and alkenes including the mechanisms of free radical substitution and electrophilic additon (markovnikov). In PowerPoint format, the cue cards print out in the correct format. Once printed, all it takes 1 minute to slice the cards and prepare a set, is formatted so the answers will show on the reverse of the question card.

PowerPoints going over the reactions of Transition metals, deprotonation, ligand exchange. relevant for A-level Chemistry. Also includes another Power Point on the colours of the Transition metal precipitates.

Eight resources on the thermal decomposition of the group 1 and 2 nitrates and carbonates. The first resource is a differentiated worksheet with the questions designed around the style of AQA, Edexcel and OCR exam papers and test students on every aspect of the topic including the reactions, observations, trends, theory of charge density/polarisation and finishes with a few questions on how we measure it experimentally. I looked at exam papers from all three exam boards when designing this resource so that it provides comprehensive coverage for my students. Answers are included. There is also a resource which goes through the qualitative observations associated with thermal decomposition of the carbonates and nitrates (what’s observed e.g limewater goes cloudy, brown gas of Nitrogen dioxide etc). I have also included a spider diagram of the reactions/observations and Power Points which explain the science behind it. There is then a hexagon activity and a challenge grid, both designed at stretching & challenging the students.

An A-Level Chemistry resource on isotopes and relative atomic mass. Includes the definitions of isotope, RAM and relative isotopic mass. Questions require students to identify the particles present in atoms, isotopes and ions. Calculations on determining relative atomic mass (given percentage abundance, relative abundance or relative isotopic mass). Three sections with each section increasing in difficulty. Section three requires students to identify the relative isotopic mass of a species given the relative atomic mass. Suitable for the new 2018 A-Level syllabuses. Answers are included.

A knowledge organiser on the A-level chemistry practical “preparation of 2-chloro-2-methylpropane” which is one of the** required practicals for A-Level Chemistry**. The knowledge organiser includes the method, apparatus diagram and physical data (density, boiling point etc). It then includes information on each stage of the process, washing, drying and redistillation. I use it in my lessons to go through the procedure in greater depth and then students refer to this when practising questions.

A knowledge organiser on the A-level chemistry practical “preparation of cyclohexene from cyclohexanol. The knowledge organiser includes the method, apparatus diagram and physical data (density, boiling point etc). It then includes information on each stage of the process, washing, drying and redistillation. I use it in my lessons to go through the procedure in greater depth and then students refer to this when practising questions.

An A-Level Chemistry knowledge organiser on Polymer chemistry. Covers information about addition and condensation polymerisation including the formation of polythene, PVC, terylene, kevlar and nylon 6,6. also has a section on disposal of polymers. Suitable for the new 2015 A-Level Chemistry syllabuses.

A worksheet on the AQA GCSE combined physics (trilogy) topic forces in action. Covers an example of the different types of forces calculations that students need to learn. Is a useful revision resource at the end of the topic enabling students to revise the practice the several equations that they need to learn. Answers are included.

An AQA Physics GCSE knowledge organiser on the P2 topic “Particles at work: Electric circuits”. contains information on current and charge, potential difference and resistance, component characteristics, IV characteristics graphs, series and parallel circuits. Relevant for the new 2016 specification.

Two activities to go with the GCSE Chemistry required practical “Making a soluble salt”. The first is a hexagon challenge activity in which students have to make connections between the apparatus used and method. Is an activity that promotes stretch and challenge. The second is a cut and stick which requires students to correctly label the apparatus in the correct order.

A knowledge organiser on inorganic qualitiative tests including cation flame tests, tests for the magnesium and ammonium cations, the sulfate and carbonate anions, halides tests (silver nitrate, displacement and reaction with concentrated sulfuric acid.) The knowledge organiser also includes relevant ionic equations where applicable.

An A-Level Chemistry knowledge organiser on groups 2 and 7 of the periodic table. Includes information on electronegativity, melting and boiling points, trends in oxidising ability, displacement reactions, reactions of halide ions, uses of chlorine etc. Also contains information from group 2 on physical and chemical properties, reactions, solubilities of sulfates and hydroxides, ionisiation energies etc. Relevant for the new 2015 A-Level Chemistry syllabus.
