I made a tiny presentation for teaching ester nomenclature. Students are challenged with a few structures and challenged to name them. The following slide gives the answer. Available in powerpoint and keynote.

All chemistry students should have this somewhere in their folder. Plus a sheet with ten questions.

Reaction mechanisms are beautiful dances, with the dancing atoms throwing out two (heterolytic ) or one (homolytic) arms out to their partner. Thus, I added a little beat to this reaction mechanism.

A simple handout illustrating a simple calculation of percentage yield. May save you some time.

Part of a series. I tend to do one for my students when we come across an example in a question.

I have tried to produce a clear example of an acid/base titration for use on the board or as a handout. I used colour to make it as clear as possible.

As it says on the tin. Suitable for AQA GCSE chemistry.

Please note: in order to provide a rich interactive experience, my interactive resources are mini-web sites local to your computer. After unzipping, they comprise a folder containing the main quiz.html file and another folder containing the graphic resources and my coding to make the resource work. Double click on the quiz.html file and the resource will work. If, however , you move or delete any of the files from this hierarchy, the resource will not work.

For display.

Label the diagram.

Use the proton NMR trace to distinguish which is which.

This is also available on my You Tube channel below.

A cut N stick version of my interactive cycle.

One of a series.

A very short & simple video showing transfer of an electron from sodium atom to chlorine atom

Colourful contextual diagram about amides.

I got out my felt pens again and made a naive little movie of this reaction, just to show where the atoms come from and go to. No mechanism in sight.

A tiny sheet where the student fills in the name of the reaction and the required reagents in the boxes. Start of a series. Covers reactions in OCR B.

I made a definitions sheet for reaction mechanisms for a student of mine. I thought I would share it.

I made a tiny cartoon illustrating the two reaction profiles
