Learning aims

As always with chemistry, the lesson is content heavy! The learning outcomes mainly focus on definitions, as well as properties and reactions of metals:

  • Definitions
  • When a substance reacts by gaining oxygen we call it oxidation
  • When a substance reacts by losing electrons we call it oxidation (OIL)
  • When a substance reacts by losing oxygen we call it reduction
  • When a substance reacts by gaining electrons we call it reduction (RIG)
  • Chemical properties of metals
  • Chemical reactions of metals
