• TLF-IDL2568

Investigate chemical reactions at a molecular level. Break apart molecules of oxygen and another substance into their component atoms and rearrange them to make molecules of new substances. For example, explore how methane burns in oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. Work out the number of molecules of each substance ...

• TLF-IDL2573

Investigate chemical reactions at a molecular level. Examine collisions between molecules of two reactants. Adjust the ratios of the reactants and compare the outcomes. Identify the number of molecules involved in a balanced reaction. For example, two A molecules combine with a B2 molecule to form a molecule of A2B2. This ...

• TLF-IDM020101

This is a student guide that takes an in-depth look at chemical reactions with individual chapters on the structure of atoms, chemical changes and formula, radioactivity and nuclear energy, energy changes, and reactions involving acids and bases. Each part or chapter of this resource contains information, images and diagrams, ...

• TLF-IDL2569

Investigate chemical reactions at a molecular level. Break apart molecules of two substances into their component atoms and rearrange them to make molecules of new substances. For example, explore how sulfur reacts with hydrogen to produce hydrogen sulfide. Work out the number of molecules of each substance needed to balance ...

• TLF-IDM015604

Cells are like chemical factories. Discover the different ways cells get energy to carry out their daily operations. Learn about the different types of metabolic processes inside cells, such as those that break down molecules to release energy and those that assemble building blocks to make more complex components.

• TLF-IDM016122

Students use this simulation to learn that react with hydrochloric acid to produce salt and hydrogen and find out how to test for hydrogen gas. The notice that sodium reacts violently and that magnesium reacts more quickly than zinc but that the hydrogen gas test is positive for both. Word equations are provided for all reactions.

• TLF-IDM016564

A page with a focus on completing and balancing chemical equations with supporting activities and links to resources.

• TLF-IDM016526

Students use this resource consisting of eight slides with diagrams, written explanation and voice-over to understand that pH is a measure of the strength of an acid or alkali and how to interpret the colours of universal indicator solution. There is a two-question quiz and a summary slide.

• TLF-IDM016609

This simulation allows students to explore the chemical reactions between hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, nitrogen and chlorine. They can form water, carbon dioxide, hydrochloric acid, ammonia and methane. Word and chemical equations are provided. The diagrams distinguish single, double and triple bonds and shapes of molecules.

• TLF-IDR11804

This is a collection of 17 digital curriculum resources that support teaching and learning about the flow of energy and matter in ecosystems. The collection comprises seven teacher resources that include activities for investigating ecosystems, and ten learning strategies. The strategies include concept mapping, brainstorming, ...
