Visually based presentation relating the properties of ionic, molecular & giant covalent and metallic substances to their particle arrangements. Summary at end
Presentation on one of the duller corners of the GCSE Chem syllabus. Makes concepts visible as far as poss, also tries to explain why they are important in the real world.
Visually based coverage of the physics of fusion looking at some example reactions (pp & DT), mass defect and role in stars. Nucleosynthesis. Outline consideration of fusion reactor designs. Issues related to fusion and its role as an energy resource.
Visually based presentation covering the physics of fission, the need for a moderator, control rods etc. Outline of reactor design linked to above. Ends with consideration of the issues associated with fission as an energy resource.
To run alongside and support experiments with lmirrors. Visual coverage of workings of lmirrors, with step by step construction of ray diagrams & image formation. Each related to how these appear in the real world and their practical uses.
Graphical coverage of reversible reactions and equilibrium, Le Chatelier’s principle and its application to simple reactions with the Haber process covered in detail. Suitable for AQA C10
