Structure strips for the AQA GCSE Chemistry topic “Chemical of the atmosphere”. 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 2016 GCSE specification. There are 25 questions within the structure strips and answers are included.

Structure strips for the AQA GCSE Chemistry topic “Crude oil and fuels”. 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 2016 GCSE specification. There are 28 questions within the structure strips and answers are included.

A traffic lights quiz on the GCSE Chemistry topic of electrolysis. Can be used as a plenary to test students knowledge. Includes questions on electrolysis, electrolytes, anode, cathode, oxidation, reduction and ionic equations. Suitable for the new 2018 GCSE specifications. Answers are included.

A Starter activity on the A-Level Chemistry topic Transition metals. Students are given several definitions of a transition metal and need to rank them in order, giving explanations why why they have done it in that order. An excellent activity that challenges their understanding on the structure of transition metals and works well as a discussion starter for the lesson.

An A-Level Chemistry resource illustrating the reactions of the transition metals as spider diagrams (with ligands like hydroxide ions, ammonia, chloride ions etc). The first resource is spider diagrams which students have to fill in (in word format and prints out automatically in A3 from your computer). To accompany the feedback of answers, an animated Power Point is also included allowing the teacher to go through the answers in more depth, with each answer fading into view on a mouse click. Includes reactions of Copper(II), Chromium(III), Iron(II) and (III) and cobalt(II). The resource is editable and answers are included to every spider diagram in Power Point format.

An A-Level Chemistry resource on the reactions of alkanes, alkenes, alcohols and halogenoalkanes. Students have to complete the tables using their knowledge of reactions, conditions and reaction type. Suitable for the new 2015 A-Level Chemistry syllabuses. Answers are included.

A Mass Spectra fragmentation table illustrating both the radicals lost and the ion responsible for the m/z values given. Helps students analyse a mass spectra.

Two knowledge organisers on the A-level chemistry practical “oxidation of alcohols" including the oxidation of ethanol to ethanoic acid and the oxidation of butan-2-ol to butanone. The oxidation of alcohols is one of the** required practicals for A-Level Chemistry**. The knowledge organisers include the method, apparatus diagram and theory that goes with the practical. It then includes information on each stage of the process, reflux, distillation, 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 oxidation and reduction. Includes information on assigning oxidation number rules, oxidation and reduction, oxidising and reducing agents, disproportionation, writing half equations (in both acidic and alkaline conditions) and combining half equations to write a full ionic equation. Suitable for all exam boards.

An A-Level Chemistry knowledge organiser about Kinetics. Contains information on rates of reaction (factors that affect the rate, experimental methods, explanations of why these factor affects the rate etc.) Also contains informaiton on Maxwell Boltzmann distributions and how they are used to explain the effect of temperature and a catalyst.

A resource for the AQA A-Level Chemistry syllabus on colours of transition metals. Students cut and stick the transition metal complexes and match them up to their colours.

An A-Level Chemistry knowledge organiser on amino acids. content covers structure, physical properties, zwitterions, structure in acid/alkaline solution, hydroylsis of peptides and chromatography. Suitable for the all of new 2015 A-Level Chemistry specifications.

Knowledge organisers for the Edexcel A-Level Chemistry topic 6. Including chemistry of the hydrocarbons, alcohols and halogenoalkanes. Includes information on all of the chemistry from the edexcel syllabus on alkanes, alkenes, alcohols and halogenoalkanes. Structure, bonding, naming, mechanisms, apparatus, equations etc are included. A comprehensive coverage of the whole of the topic 6 organic chemistry topic 6a-e

A GCSE physics resource on calculating kinetic energy. The worksheet is differentiated and gets more difficult as you move through each section, starts with practice on rearranging the equestion, and changing the units. The contains some basic calculations, finishing with harder exam style questions. Takes about 30 mins for students to complete. Answers are provided.

A GCSE Chemistry traffic light quiz on acids and alkalis, suitable for the new 2018 AQA GCSE syllabus. Students use traffic light cards to answer the questions. Can be used as a plenary and answers are included.

An A-Level chemistry worksheet on shapes of molecules (electron pair repulsion theory). Students have to complete the number of bond pairs/lone pairs, bond angle and shape for each molecule.

A cut and stick activity for the new AQA GCSE (2018) Chemistry syllabus on electrolysis. Students have to stick in the relevant labels onto the electrolysis diagrams and then complete the ionic equations relevant for the electrolysis.

A card match activity on the chemistry topic of acids and alkalis. Can be used as a plenary at the end of a lesson. Suitable for KS3/4.
