Chemical energetics - revision flashcards
doctorharvesdoctorharves

Chemical energetics - revision flashcards

(0)
In this activity to help revise chemical energetics (kinetics, reaction rates, equilibrium, enthalpy, exothermic, endothermic reactions and collision theory) the students create flash cards with the answer on one side and question on the other. This requires students to cut and paste on cardboard to create cards.

structure and bonding - revision cards
doctorharvesdoctorharves

structure and bonding - revision cards

(0)
This resource is in the form of revision cards which students cut out and glue the answer on one side and the question on the other. e.g. a molecule with a trigonal planar shape on one side and the words trigonal planar on the other side. They can then use the cards they create as a revision tool either in pairs or individually. Placing the cards face down and working out what is on the other side of the card.
