AQA GCSE Chemistry C5 Energy Changes: 6 lessons ready to teach, with a topic test
You get every lesson for AQA GCSE Chemistry C5 Energy Changes, planned and ready to teach. There are 5 teaching lessons and the 1 required practical as full lessons. Each one is editable PowerPoint and matched to the AQA 8462 specification.
What your classes work through
- Exothermic and endothermic reactions. Pupils calculate the mean temperature change from three neutralisation repeats, then decide whether the reaction is exothermic or endothermic.
- Reaction profiles and activation energy. Pupils use a reaction profile to predict where the products appear for an energy-releasing reaction and explain why it needs a flame to start.
- Bond Energies and Energy Change. Pupils read a reaction profile to determine the activation energy and overall energy change, then classify the reaction.
- Cells and Batteries. Pupils explain why a magnesium and copper cell gives a larger voltage than a zinc and copper cell.
- Hydrogen Fuel Cells. Pupils describe what happens to hydrogen and oxygen inside a fuel cell and explain how this drives an electric motor.
The 1 required practical
- RP4 Temperature Changes. Pupils calculate the energy transferred to 30 g of solution in a polystyrene cup when its temperature rises by 6 °C.
Who it is for
Use it to teach AQA GCSE Chemistry Energy Changes lessons on exothermic and endothermic reactions, reaction profiles, bond energies, cells, batteries and hydrogen fuel cells in Year 10 and Year 11. It also includes the temperature changes required practical for GCSE Chemistry revision.
How each lesson runs
Each C5 Energy Changes lesson starts with a Do Now that recalls earlier learning, with the answers on the next slide. It then moves through I Do, We Do and You Do, with a model answer after each task. It finishes with the AQA-style question listed above, its mark scheme and an exit ticket. A specification slide names the AQA points the lesson covers, so you can check it against your scheme of work.
Topic test
The C5 Energy Changes topic test covers the whole unit with AQA-style questions and comes with its mark scheme, both in Word and PDF.
