A very simple worksheet focusing on purity and mixtures, and separation techniques.

An exam style question on DDT. With my answers.

A plant dye is used in a question about reactions of organic functional groups. It is pertinent to the study of phenols. (NB I had previously ommited the reaction of phenol rings with bromine, now tried to include this)

Link didn’t work so I have re- uploaded it

For fun

I made a tiny cartoon illustrating the two reaction profiles

When I was teaching chemistry, we bought an 'interactive periodic table" which turned out to comprise laminated printed sheets of the first 22 elements with their electronic configurations, and some blue tac. This is my response to that. CLICK ON AN ELEMENT AND THE ELECTRONIC CONFIGURATION IS RETURNED. This compliments my drag & drop version. 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 .html file and another folder containing the graphic resources and my coding to make the resource work. Double click on the .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 simple labelling exercise for this GCSE chemistry practical. Now added a very simple additional worksheet

Just a simple info sheet/poster.

I made a simple information sheet about combustion of fuels and pollution. Because I wanted to.

To illustrate intermlecular forces of attraction. I added three homework type questions on the second page.

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

part of a series of labelling activities.

a simple worksheet

Hopefully a clear display to help with redox. 2 pages.

The traditional textbook graph of this data is very confused. I feel that my presentation of the data emphasizes the role played by hydrogen bonding more clearly. The influence of atomic size on boiling point is also clearly shown by the bp of the noble gases.

A very simple worksheet to aid the distinction of addition polymers from condensation polymers. Explanation on page 1, questions on page 2.

I made a whackey little video about lithium ion cells that may amuse.
