Skeletal formula A level Chemistry worksheets

A set of 4 worksheets giving structured practice with skeletal formulae for AQA AS and A-level Chemistry. Answers are included.

This resource covers both drawing skeletal formulae and naming compounds from skeletal formulae using IUPAC nomenclature. Each worksheet contains 9 questions, progressing from the foundations through to the more complex Year 2 content.

What’s included:
• Worksheet 1: Drawing skeletal formulae of hydrocarbons
• Worksheet 2: Naming hydrocarbons from skeletal formulae
• Worksheet 3: Drawing skeletal formulae of alcohols, halogenoalkanes, amines, aldehydes, ketones and nitriles
• Worksheet 4: Naming compounds from skeletal formulae across Year 2 homologous series - carboxylic acids, amides, amines, esters, acyl chlorides, acid anhydrides, halogenoalkanes, ketones and amino acids
• Full answer sheet

Worksheets 1, 2 and 3 are suitable for Year 1 and AS students, and make excellent revision for Year 2. Worksheet 4 is ideal for introducing the new compound types covered in Year 2.

These worksheets are also flexible enough to use beyond their primary purpose — students could be asked to draw displayed or structural formulae, empirical formulae, or isomers from the same questions, making them a versatile classroom or homework resource.
