**

Students will be able to -

1 describe, in simple terms, the lattice structure of a crystalline solid which is:
(a) giant ionic, including sodium chloride and magnesium oxide
(b) simple molecular, including iodine, buckminsterfullerene C60 and ice
© giant molecular, including silicon(IV) oxide, graphite and diamond
(d) giant metallic, including copper

2 describe, interpret and predict the effect of different types of structure and bonding on the physical properties of substances, including melting point, boiling point, electrical conductivity and solubility

3 deduce the type of structure and bonding present in a substance from given information

**Every Powerpoint includes learning objectives, a starter and plenary, suitable activities and review questions with mark scheme. We also provide a free pdf version of the file so it can easily be printed for students as a handout or uploaded to the school VLE system
