This 45-slide PowerPoint and accompanying Lesson Notes teaches the strength of acids and bases. Learners often have misconceptions related to 'concentration' and 'strength' in reference to acids and bases. One of the aims of this lesson is to correct this misconception. The other main aims are listed below. A worksheet (with answers) to practice pH and pKa calculations is also included.
By the end of this lessons, students will:
1) discuss and share their initial conceptions of acid strength.
2) be able to define strong acids and weak acids
3) be able to relate the strength of an acid to the value of its acid dissociation constant, Ka
4) learn to calculate an acid dissociation constant
5) be able to differentiate between concentrated acid and strong acid
6) identify common strong and weak acids and bases in everyday life
7) Calculate the pH of strong acid solutions
8) Calculate the pH of weak acid solutions

FREE BONUS w/purchase: To receive one of my new paid resources as a free gift, please visit my website. The link can be found at my Store (click on my username).
This resource is broken up into 2 parts. These 2 parts covers many of the important models of the atom. From Democritus and Dalton to Thomson and Rutherford.
Part 1 includes 31 slides that covers the early models of the atom. This includes Democritus, Aristotle, and John Dalton and Dalton's atomic theory. An interactive quiz to review the topic is included at the end of the lesson.
Part 2 is a highly visual 57-slide powerpoint. These activities engages learners to rediscover JJ Thomson's cathode ray tube experiment and visualise the "plum pudding" model of the atom. The second half details Rutherford's gold foil experiment and the discovery of the nucleus.
A crossword puzzle and summary sheet to revise both Part 1 and Part 2 are also provided.

1) to compare and group together different kinds of rocks on the basis of their appearance and simple physical properties
2) to recognise that soils are made from rocks and organic matter
3) the rock cycle and the formation of igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks
4) to understand how cooling and solidifying of magma results in formation of igneous rocks.
5) to understand that sedimentary rocks are made by processes which include the deposition of rock fragments or organic material, or as a result of evaporation.
6) to understand how rock fragments are transported by flowing water or wind, and how grain size affects transport and settling of sediment; understand how landscape can be eroded.
7) to understand that metamorphic rocks are formed by action of heat and pressure on existing rocks.
8) to understand the meaning of the term ‘mineral’.
9) to know how forces generated by expansion, contraction and the freezing of water can lead to the physical weathering of rocks.
10) to know the different layers of a soil profile
