This resource contains two exam questions on ionic bonding. For each question, I have written some supporting questions that students answer first before they tackle the exam question. This resource could be used as a support / differentiation when teaching GCSE chemistry on ionic bonding or in a revision lesson. I have added a PP with revealed steps to solve these questions.

This resource can be used for GCSE or for A level Chemistry (as a revision of tests learnt at GCSE). It is a PP intended for a revision of qualitative analysis of positive ions (cations) and negative ions (anions) from GCSE. The first few slides review the tests and the second part of PP contains many exam questions (with answers). The main areas covered in this resource (review and assessment) are: • Making and testing gases; hydrogen, oxygen, chlorine, and carbon dioxide (including balanced equations) • Testing for positive metal – Cu 2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Al3+, Mg2+ and Ca2+, ions using sodium hydroxide solution (including balanced symbol equations and ionic equations) • Flame tests for metal ions • Testing for anions (sulphates, carbonates, and halides)

Selection of different types of exam questions; recall and application, that students can use to check and evaluate their knowledge on mass spectrometry. The questions are suitable for OCR A level Chemistry and for AQA AS Chemistry 7404. Some of the questions could be used with GCSE Chemistry students as an extension. The questions relate to the following: How does a Mass spectrometer work How molecular ion and fragment ions are formed Mass spectra of diatomic molecules (halogens) Uses of MS Finding out the relative isotopic masses and relative abundances of the naturally occurring isotopes of an element – which allows to calculate the relative atomic mass, Ar for an element. Finding the relative molecular mass of organic compounds and using fragmentation pattern to gain information about structure of organic compounds. Using fragmentation patterns to identify organic compounds. Stretch and challenge: Mass spectra of organic halogen compounds, M+1 peak

The workbook contains step by step activities to develop students confidence at the following: How to decide what type of ions do elements form depending on their position in the periodic table. How to work out the number of protons, neutrons and electrons in atoms and their ions. How to work out the charges on ions, considering the number of sub-atomic particles. How to describe the link between electron structures of ions and Group 0 elements. Teacher PP contains all the activities on the student worksheet and the answers which are, in most cases, revealed in steps. The work sheet also has an extensive starter activity to revisit the knowledge on the periodic table which students need to be familiar with. Some of the questions used here are Chemsheet questions.
