Questions and answers are included in the slides – no need to print. Designed for the AQA GCSE 9-1 specification.

A lesson that introduces intermolecular forces. It covers the different types of forces: induced dipole-dipole, permanent dipole-dipole and hydrogen bonding. Lesson goes over which type of molecules have each type of force and what the forces are. Also covers factors that influence strength of induced dipole-dipole interactions. Questions and answers are on the slides for students to work through – no printing required. Designed for the new OCR A Level specification

A lesson on condensation polymers designed for the new OCR A level spec. Includes what a condensation polymer is, what are polyesters and polyamides, how to draw polymers from monomers, how to draw monomers from polymers and the products of hydrolysis of polyesters and polyamides. Includes questions on slides for students to work through – no printing required.

A lesson on using the periodic table. It covers the locations of metals and non-metals, groups and periods and links the periodic table to electronic configuration. Questions and answers are on the slides – only need to print a periodic table for the students to use. Designed for the AQA 9-1 GCSE chemistry specification.
