7G Particle Model of Solids, Liquids & Gases

Solids, liquids and gases from Kesh Dewan

States of Matter, a 3m video from The Fuse School:

KS3 Bitesize higher level – The Particle Model – a 13m video covering States of Matter, Change of State, Gas Pressure & Diffusion:

A 20m 24s video on Solids, Liquids, Gases from Scientific Eye:

Science in Action – States of Matter a 19m 10s video. Scientific EyeChanging State (18m 30s); States of Matter (Curriculum Bites – Wan2tlkScience?), a 9m video.

Liquids that can act like solids – impossible. Or is it? Can you walk on water? (non-Newtonian fluid pool) and Brainiac Science Abuse – John Tickle walks on custard.

Superfluids: superfluid helium and Ben Miller experiments with superfluid helium.

C3 Syllabus Statements

But just how small is an atom? – from TED-Ed.

Here are some key terms for this topic: Key Terms C3

Revision sites covering Bonding:

GCSE s-cool – Chemical Bonding – revision notes & animations, practise exam questions & a revision summary

For Doc Brown’s Chemistry quizzes, word-fills, crosswords and study notes go here and just scroll down to ‘18.Structure, Properties and Bonding of Materials’.

Skoool Chemistry – click on ‘1. Structures & Bonding’ for excellent lessons that take you through the topic; also a glossary of key terms.

Worksheets from Mr Guch that cover Properties of Ionic & Covalent Compounds.

Great resources from the Australian International School – videos, powerpoints, worksheets, practicals, animations, flashcards etc.

For fun, here’s Chemical Party (a 1m 30s vid).

C3.3 Atomic Structure

TEXTBOOK REVISION Complete Chemistry for Cambridge IGCSE, chapter 3, pp.30 – 33, 34 top, 36 – 37

Short videos on what is an atom and parts of an atom (from The Virtual School) in English; and here’s one in Australian. Science Bank 17 (Atomic Structure):Part 1 – structure of the atom, Part 2 – atomic number & mass number, Part 3 – electronic structure.

The Virtual School have made a number of other short videos. Here’s one on atomic & mass number; this covers energy levels & electronic configuration. Some practice exam questions on atoms go here and here. And here’s a poem.

What are isotopes?:

A good powerpoint – although you don’t need to know about Rutherford’s experiment (the first few slides):

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

C7.1 Speed of Reaction

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).

Solids, Liquids & Gases

Some information on solids, liquids and gases (including a decent animation) can be found here. And this is a video on States of Matter from The Virtual School:

Science Bank 4 (Motion of Particles): Part 1 – Brownian motion (to 4m 45s); Part 2 – diffusion (to 9m 45s); Part 3 – changes of state (to 14m 15s):

IGCSE Chemistry: Topic 1 part 1 Particulate Nature of Matter  (6m 30s) & part 2 Diffusion (5m 35s), lessons by Sal Sciab.

Not on the syllabus, but interesting: the invisible motion of still objects:
