A2 Level Chemistry
Produced by Nelson Thornes, these materials help students to reinforce their understanding of key A2 level chemsirty topics. Designed for the AQA specifications, they can also be applied to other courses.
Materials contain teacher notes and student activity sheets. They cover topics that include:
• Born-Haber cycles
• Drug synthesis
• Reaction rates and mechanisms
• Redox titrations
• Rusting
HEALTH and SAFETY
Any use of a resource that includes a practical activity must include a risk assessment. Please note that collections may contain ARCHIVE resources, which were developed at a much earlier date. Since that time there have been significant changes in the rules and guidance affecting laboratory practical work. Further information is provided in our Health and Safety guidance.
Born-Haber Cycles
From Nelson Thornes, these materials are aimed at A2 level students and help them to understand the energy changes involved in Born-Haber cycles. The student activity sheet follows on from the study of Born-Haber cycles and the calculation of lattice enthalpies. The activities requires students to apply this knowledge with more…
Drug Synthesis
From Nelson Thornes, these materials are aimed at A2 level students and help them to understand synthetic routes for the synthesis of some important medicines. Students are challenged to devise synthetic routes for the production of paracetamol from phenol and progesterone-like molecules for use in birth control pills. This is…
Reaction Rates and Mechanisms
From Nelson Thornes, these resources help students to reinforce understanding about reaction rates, orders of reactions and the rate-determining step of a reaction. The activity challenges students to determine the order of a reaction from experimental data and deduce the reaction mechanism from this data. These materials…
Redox Titration
From Nelson Thornes, these materials are aimed at A2 level students and help them to reinforce and practise their understanding of redox titration calculations. These include redox titrations involving iron, copper, manganate, sulfate and dichromate ions. HEALTH and SAFETY Any use of a resource that includes a practical activity…
Rusting
From Nelson Thornes, these materials help students to understand electrode potentials and the electrochemical series. In this activity students apply their knowledge to the process of rusting. Rusting is an electrochemical process that causes a great deal of damage and costs a considerable amount of money to prevent. Some of…
