The atomic structure of the elements

(0)
These powerpoint presentations outline for A-level students how the position of an element in the periodic table is determined. The presentations include starter activities on electronic configuration. The presentations highlight how the properties of the elements change depending on their position in the periodic table. These properties include atomic radii and electronegativity. Finally, these properties are then used to explain the shape and polarity of molecules and linked to the bonding associated with these molecules.

Electron Configuration

(0)
This powerpoint presentation outlines for A-level students how to develop electron configurations for the elements. It also outlines the shapes of the orbitals associated with these electron configurations.
Periodic Trends - Electronegativity
doctorharvesdoctorharves

Periodic Trends - Electronegativity

(0)
This is a powerpoint presentation outlining how electronegativity of the elements changes in the periodic table. The lesson starts with a do now related to electron configuration. This lesson is designed for A level Chemistry level students.
The Polarity of Molecules
doctorharvesdoctorharves

The Polarity of Molecules

(0)
This is a powerpoint presentation designed for A level Chemistry designed to develop student understanding of how the polarity of molecules develops. This is linked to dipole moments and how this is related to the shape of molecules. The polarity is linked to bonding type as well.
Rates of reaction activity
doctorharvesdoctorharves

Rates of reaction activity

(1)
This activity summarises the effect of varying different conditions on the rate of a chemical reaction. The activity has three tasks firstly, filling in missing words to complete summary sentences. Secondly, completing sketch graphs of changing conditions on creation of products and finally, a jig saw exercise of what and why changing certain reaction conditions changes the rate of reaction.

doctorharvesdoctorharves

Work Booklet Chemistry - Groups 1 and 7

(0)
This booklet is designed to test student understanding of the periodic table and in particular, groups 1 and 7. The activities in the form of questions and practical exercises are designed to link electronic structure with the properties of the elements. Balancing of equations and explantation of experimental results is also involved.
Group 1 and Group 7 elements
doctorharvesdoctorharves

Group 1 and Group 7 elements

(0)
This activity is in the form of a word documents outlining questions designed to to test student understanding of the elements of group 1 and group 7. The questions are designed to link the chemical and physical properties of these elements with their electronic configuration and position on the periodic table.
Elements - assignment
doctorharvesdoctorharves

Elements - assignment

(0)
5 tasks the form of an assignment consisting of a series of questions designed to test student understanding of atomic structure and how the periodic table is designed. Developed to investigate the first 20 elements and linking their atomic structure to the properties of these elements. Describe how the properties of the first 20 elements link to their position on the periodic table.

Organic Chemistry - hydrocarbons

(0)
This lesson in the form a presentation outlines the simple hydrocarbons (alkenes and alkanes) - properties and how you can experimentally differentiate between the two classes of compound. The lesson also includes activities to test student understanding. Designed for KS4 and 5.
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.
