  3. How is the course broken down? Each year is split into 3 units. All three together are worth 100% of the total AS Level: AS: Unit 1: Science at Work – portfolio. (33%). Unit 2: Analysis at Work – portfolio. (33%). Unit 3: Monitoring of the Human Body – Exam. (33%).

  4. How is the course broken down? Each year is split into 3 units and is worth 100% of the total A2 Level: A2: Unit 8: Investigating the Scientist’s Work– portfolio. (33%). Unit 9: Sampling, Testing & Processing - Exam. (33%). Unit 15: Applications of Biotechnology. (33%).

  5. Testing for ions

  6. HOW? Tests for ions

  7. Ions revision • Atoms form ions by either gaining or losing electrons Na+ Ca2+ K+ Br-

  8. Identifying elements • In a laboratory, pure elements are available and usually labelled. • In other areas, the presence of particular elements is unknown and must be tested. • Flame tests are used to confirm the presence of some elements.

  9. 1. Flame tests • Positive ions produce different flame colours. • We can use these colours to find out what positive ion a compound contains.

  10. Carrying out flame tests • You will be using Hydrochloric acid • This is dangerous! • In all experiments, you should work with an awareness of GLP (Good Laboratory Practice). • Get into the habit of recording everything!

  11. Watch Miss Fergus demonstrate. • GOGGLES ON! • Off you go.

  12. Name that flame! 1= Sodium ions 2= Calcium ions 3= Potassium ions 4= Copper ions

  14. Homework: Hand in September first lesson • Throughout the course you must identify the vocational context for each investigation. • You have done some testing for ions. • Write a 2-3 page report titled “Industries that use ion testing and how they use these results.” • Include a referenced bibliography.

  15. What GCSE's do you need? • You need: • B in your Year 11 Additional GCSE. • 43 points overall (average of B/C for all subjects).
