Six lesson unit for Topic 1 Atomic Structure CIE AS/A Level Chemistry (9701). Clear explanations, definitions and equations that match CIE texts/exams. A ready to teach unit ideal for new and experienced teachers.

Slides 2–3 outline the official Cambridge International AS & A Level Chemistry (9701) specification.

This PowerPoint directly covers:
1.3 Electrons, Energy Levels and Atomic Orbitals
2.4 Ionisation Energy

What This Resource Provides
• Carefully planned, ready-to-teach PowerPoint
• Click in animations, giving teachers the option to model, annotate or write on the board—perfect support for early-career teachers.
• Detailed specification Points covered on beginning slides
• Clear learning goals and starter tasks
• Bold, textbook-aligned definitions matched to CIE exam language
• Equations fully sequenced with correct subscripts
• Worked examples / model questions with answers always provided
• Animations, YouTube links, diagrams
• Retrieval, AfL, consolidation, and plenaries
• Experimental methods and analysis where relevant
• End-of-unit assessment questions and reflection activities
• Each lesson uses a steady “explain → check → apply” model
• Follows the Cambridge A Level course book
• All content matched to the Cambridge International 9701 specification

Lesso Summaries
Lesson 1 – Principal Energy Levels & Ionisation Energy
Covers quantum shells, simple electronic structure, emission spectra, first ionisation energy and successive IEs. Includes quick AfL tasks and worked equations.

Lesson 2 – Factors Affecting Ionisation Energies
Explains nuclear charge, distance from nucleus, shielding and spin-pair repulsion. Students interpret real IE data to deduce the Periodic Table position.

Lesson 3 – Electrons, Orbitals & Subshells
Introduces s, p, d subshells, electron capacities and orbital shapes. Includes diagrams, animations and a simple practical activity modelling orbitals.

Lesson 4 – Electron Configuration (1s² notation)
Covers Aufbau, Hund and Pauli rules; electron configurations up to Ar; transitions into 4s/3d; configurations of ions. Includes multiple worked examples.

Lesson 5 – Electrons in Boxes Notation
Box-notation practice applying all three filling rules. Students write configurations for atoms and ions and identify free radicals.

Lesson 6 – Atomic Radii & Ionisation Energy Trends
Explores trends across a period and down a group, including anomalies (Li, Be → B). Includes interpretation of graphs and exam-style questions.

Final slides support consolidation of Chapters 1 & 2, with the coursebook questions and answers textbook exam-style questions and answers.
