AQA GCSE chemistry - Unit 5 - Lesson 3 Bond energies and energy changes in reactions

(0)
Powerpoint lesson linked to workbook for the lesson with spaces for students to write answers, example examination questions and a mark scheme for the workbook. Save time by avoiding the need for your students to write out lengthy sets of notes or draw diagrams. The work book includes spaces for marking and feedback including checked by teacher and verbal feedback given. Also leaves space to stick in improvement work or complete on the page. Could substitute for class books providing evidence for progress over time linked to success criteria. Success criteria covered in this lesson are: I understand that an exothermic reaction is one that transfers energy to the surroundings so the temperature of the surroundings increases. I understand that an endothermic reaction is one that takes in energy from the surroundings so the temperature of the surroundings decreases. I can explain and evaluate uses of exothermic and endothermic reactions I can investigate the variables that affect temperature changes in reacting solutions such as neutralisation reactions. I write Professor Bunsen resources to teach and test in my own classroom and try to make the resources compatible with a lot of the ways in which we are currently being asked to teach science including feedback and improvements and redrafting. The new specifications are intensive on time, and I am testing out moving towards workbooks and away from ordinary class books. These could be differentiated towards your own students. I hope that I manage to make the new GCSE in chemistry engaging and exciting. Most importantly it could save you and your school time!

Professor_BunsenProfessor_Bunsen

AQA GCSE chemistry - Unit 4 - Lesson 6 and 7 Titrations and Strong and Weak Acids

(1)
This is a pack of two lessons to teach titrations and strong and weak acids with an introduction to the meaning of pH. It has two powerpoints and worksheets in word and pdf format with answers to the worksheet as well. Titration methodology Calculations A3 grid Resources for the neutralisation assessed practical differentiated for higher and foundation tier students The meaning of strong acid in terms of complete ionisation of acid molecules in water The meaning of weak acid in terms of partial ionisation of acid molecules in water Comparison of the terms concentrated and dilute with strong and weak and an explanation of how a weak acid can still be concentrated and a strong acid could still be dilute. Grid to test understanding of key vocabulary in the ppt file. Meaning of pH in terms of the change in 10x each time you go down a pH unit - does not include logarithms it is described in an accessible way that allows students to calculate changes in concentration as pH unit changes. I write Professor Bunsen resources to teach and test in my own classroom. I hope that I manage to make the new GCSE in chemistry engaging and exciting. Most importantly it could save you and your school time!

The work book includes spaces for marking and feedback including checked by teacher and verbal feedback given. Also leaves space to stick in improvement work or complete on the page. Could substitute for class books providing evidence for progress over time linked to success criteria. Success criteria covered in this lesson are: I can draw simple reaction profiles for exothermic and endothermic reactions to show their relative energies. I can annotate the reaction profiles to show the activation energy and overall energy change I can explain whether a reaction is exothermic or endothermic using reaction profiles I can explain that activation energy is the minimum energy required for a reaction to occur.
