I am a Science Teacher with 25 years experience and love producing resources. As one of my HoD's remarked "Your lesson plans and resources are outstanding, if only you could teach as good as your resources." Chemistry is my main subject, but have an interest in Pedagogy, especially CASE (Cognitive Acceleration through Science Education) and misconceptions and how to overcome them.

This resource contains a 40+ page PowerPoint with animations on each stage of a Time of Flight (TOF) Mass Spectrometer, including vapourisation, ionisation, ion drift, electric field and ion detection. It explains how to interpret a Mass Spectrum of isotopes and moleules. Including: How to predict the mass spectrum of diatomic molecules with 1:1, 1:2 and 1:3 ratios, with explanations examples and questions. There are questions to check understanding and a sheet of calculations for students to try with explanations of how the answers are calculated. It contains 4 exam style questions based on AQA A Level questions with answers on the PowerPoint. Slides have a Learning Objectives linked to the AQA Syllabus so that everything is covered.
