All chemistry students should have this somewhere in their folder. Plus a sheet with ten questions.

Part of a series. I tend to do one for my students when we come across an example in a question.

Just a simple info sheet/poster.

I have tried to produce a clear example of an acid/base titration for use on the board or as a handout. I used colour to make it as clear as possible.

For display.

Label the diagram.

As it says on the tin. Suitable for AQA GCSE chemistry.

I made a series of templates for the main aliphatic reaction mechanisms in OCR chemistry A level. They resemble exam questions where students have to complete the reaction with partial charges, lone pairs and curly arrows. The intention is that they can be printed out by students as often as is required, for practice. A solution is provided for each example. Included are: nucleophilic substitution, electrophilic addition, nucleophilic addition, radical substitution and elimination.

An explanation of paper chromatography in a movie, with voiceover. In this animation, the dyes don’t smear, so students can see what is meant to happen, rather than what really does.

This is also available on my You Tube channel below.

A device to help students remember the first ten names of the alkanes, and hence have the key to IUPAC nomenclature

I have tried to illustrate the concept of separation of water molecules rather than breaking covalent bonds when water is heated with a quick and dirty animation. Click on the water boiling.html file and it will run in your browser.

A very short & simple video showing transfer of an electron from sodium atom to chlorine atom

Colourful contextual diagram about amides.

A tiny sheet where the student fills in the name of the reaction and the required reagents in the boxes. Start of a series. Covers reactions in OCR B.

This runs in your browser…click on the correct answer and you get feedback. Eight slides. Please note: in order to provide a rich interactive experience, my interactive resources are mini-web sites local to your computer. After unzipping, they comprise a folder containing the main quiz.html file and another folder containing the graphic resources and my coding to make the resource work. Double click on the quiz.html file and the resource will work. If, however , you move or delete any of the files from this hierarchy, the resource will not work.

I made a tiny cartoon illustrating the two reaction profiles

A simple information sheet, with the emphasis on clarity. It may be useful to someone, somewhere.

with some easter eggs

Use the proton NMR trace to distinguish which is which.
