A practical worksheet on the whiteboard to save with photocopying. A simple prac, put rocks in water, dry off and see if they have gained mass. A sample set of results are included. Comments welcome

Isotopes of hydrogen are used to show what isotopes are. Calculations of Relative Atomic Mass are covered through a worked example using chlorine and then an exercise using copper.

A simple worksheet that gives some applications of exothermic and endothermic reactions, written to cover the syllabus and also most exam questions.

Why NMR is used in preference to IR

Handy starter printed on two sheets to reduce to A5 on printing. Only you will know that all the answers are true, some look outlandish but they are real.

A powerpoint that can be used as an alternative to a worksheet for the reaction of zinc and sulphuric acid. Using a little copper sulphate solution will speed it up

Active reading sheets get pupils to read the information several times and analyse it in different ways. Pupil read the sheet then re-read it to add titles to paragraphs, then re-read it to find the negatives, then re-read to find the positives, then re-read to find business strategies. A useful way to put across a lot of information without copying and with the knowledge that it will be read. Comments welcomed

Shows ozone formation and destruction in the normal stratosphere. Shows role of cfcs in destroying ozone and consequent reduction in UV absorbed Based on GCSE syllabus but includes all Y12 Green Chemistry equations. Comments welcome

A powerpoint that shows how to calculate %Composition and sets it in the context of fertilisers

This is a three slide powerpoint. Print out the first two and you have a cut and paste activity. I added the third slide so that pupils could self mark the activity. It saves a lot of writing about intercourse which some pupils in year seven find difficult to do. Comments and feedback welcome

A power point to show the alkane family properties both chemical and physical.

A simple table of common ions that pupils can reference when working out formulae. Old fashioned but great for those stretching and challenging formulae questions

A lot of spectra, collected by functional group. Students can see, for example, the clear 3300-3000cm-1 peak for all alcohols. A useful blank table at the start, complete at the end for peer marking.

This powerpoint is meant to be used in conjunction with a molecular modelling kit. Students work in groups to build what they think are the isomers called for. They can then rotate the chains to find out which ones are the same. Namenclature can also be tested Comments welcome.

An introduction to Mass Spectroscopy. The theory and some examples of simple fragmentation patterns. If you like this, leave a review, some constructive criticism or some questions.

A pretty powerpoint that tries to answer the question, How do we know that we are in space?

Shows the overlap of p orbitals to make the delocalised system.

A quick revision of isomerism then an animation of polarimetry. Comments welcome. This replaces a similar resource that didn't actually upload the resource!
