Introduction

This resource pack contains whiteboard activities on chemical reactions, including how to make observations of reactions and how to decide whether a chemical reaction is useful or not. There are interactive activities for students to explore their own prior knowledge, as well as learn new concepts and consolidate their learning. This pack also includes teachers' notes to support the use of the activities.

KS3 Science: Materials and their properties - Changing materials

Compounds 7
how some elements combine through chemical reactions to form compounds eg water, carbon dioxide, magnesium oxide, sodium chloride

Chemical reactions
8
that when chemical reactions take place, new substances are formed and mass is conserved
9 that useful products can be made from chemical reactions, including the production of metals from metal oxides
10 about chemical reactions eg corrosion of iron, chemical weathering of rock, that are not always useful
