starter worksheet to help new A level students learn the naming process

Aims: To know what a mass spectrometer is/does; To learn how to interpret data produced in mass spectroscopy.

This works really well. Just print off a selection of NMR, IR and mass spectra and pupils write exam questions and mark schemes (easy to differentiate). They then swap and try each others exam questions.

some practice questions

explains how to collect a gas for testing, depending on its density

an introduction to electrolysis and redox. ppt used to start lesson off and can either be followed by practical or more work on oilrig.

quick starter, plenary or h/w

I use this in conjunction with chromatography practical.

LESSON 5: EMISSION SPECTRA This powerpoint will lead you through the lesson. Includes explanations + practice questions and mark scheme.

HIGHER LEVEL LESSON 3: EMISSION SPECTRA CALCULATIONS This powerpoint will lead you through the lesson. Includes explanations and practice questions.

LESSON 2-4: ALKALI METALS AND HALOGENS I have added powerpoints looking at alkali metals, halogens and oxides. There is also a practical sheet for halogens.

aims: writing equations; Complete metal hydroxide reaction (neutralisation).

ppt that will work with any concentration reaction contains a peer assessment activity for graph drawing skill

the never ending explanation of when and how to draw a bar chart! this is a straight forward ppt to help - good luck!

i use this after I have covered collision theory - good task for high ability

Aims: Revise free radical substitution mechanism; Know the relevant reactions of alkanes.
