C7 Chemical Reactions (Combined Science)

Here are some key terms for this topic: Key Terms C7

GCSE Bitesize has revision pages (that take you through the topic), a test and an activity – click on Rates of Reaction.  GCSE s-cool – Rates of Reaction – revision notes & animations, practise exam questions and a revision summary. Skoool Chemistry – click on ‘6. Rates of Reaction’ for excellent lessons that take you through the topic; also a glossary of key terms.

Chemactive worksheets and answers just click on ‘Rates questions’.

For Doc Brown’s Chemistry quizzes, word-fills, crosswords and study notes go here and just scroll down.

This is a great power-point that also revises C6 Energy changes in chemical reactions:

Chemical reactions from Carole Paquette

C71.1 RATE OF REACTION

Rate of reaction chemical kinetics (condensed) from jslayer

Science Bank (Reactions & Energy Changes): part 2 Reaction Rates (from 4m 40s) & part 3 Catalysts (from 9m 20s):

Five minutes on how to speed up chemical reactions (and get a date) from TED-Ed.

GCSE Bitesize – two videos – Rates of Reaction (3m 18s) or Rates of Reactions (4m 40s) & Bitesize Top 20 Science Demos – Rates of Reaction (5m 51s).

C7.2 REDOX

IGCSE Chemistry, a 25m lesson from ChemistryKlipz covers redox rcts (to 6m 20s):

BBC Short Circuit Redox Changes a 19m video.

C8 Acids, Bases and Salts (Combined Science)

Here are some key terms for this topic: Key Terms C8

GCSE Bitesize has revision pages (that take you through the topic), a test and an activity – scroll down to Acids, Bases and Salts. GCSE s-cool – Acids & Alkalis – revision notes & animations, practise exam questions & a revision summary. Skoool Chemistry – click on ‘7.Acids, Alkalis & Salts’ for excellent lessons that take you through the topic; also a glossary of terms. Chemactive worksheets & answers just click on Acids & Alkali questions.

Acids, Bases and Salts (Chemistry ‘O’ level) from Faiz Abdullah

C8.1 THE CHARACTERISTIC PROPERTIES OF ACIDS & BASES

A bit of revision:

Reactions of acids from baha696969

GCSE Bitesize – Acids, Bases & Salts (5m 23s):

Bitesize Top 20 Science Demos – Acids & Alkalis (3m 12s). Also (in American) is a 14m 13s video on Acids & Bases.

Coke Cans in Acid and Base from the Periodic Table of Videos. All about that Base (no acid) – musical parody.

C8.2 PREPARATION OF SALTS

The powerpoint ‘Acids, Bases & Salts‘ (above) covers this subtopic very well.

C8.3 IDENTIFICATION OF IONS & GASES

The Virtual School video clips on how to test for gases, for anions (carbonates, sulphates & nitrates), for cations (copper, iron, zinc & ammonium) and ammonium ions (2nd half) .

IGCSE Chemistry, a 25m lesson from ChemistryKlipz covers testing for ions from 19m 45s to 25m 30s.

For Doc Brown’s Chemistry quizzes, word-fills, crosswords and study notes go here and just scroll down to ’23.Chemical Tests for Identification’.

This powerpoint revises group properties (from C9 The Periodic Table) and then covers testing for ions & gases:
