Part of the AQA GCSE Combined Science curriculum.
AQA GCSE Combined Science 5.2 Bonding, Structure and Properties is a step-by-step online learn guide for GCSE students in Years 10 and 11, mapped to the AQA specification (AQA GCSE Combined Science: Trilogy (8464) – 5.2 Bonding, structure and properties). It covers chemical bonds and ionic bonding, ionic compounds, covalent bonding and small molecules, polymers and giant covalent structures, structure and bonding of carbon, metallic bonding, metals and alloys and states of matter and state symbols, then brings it all together with mixed retrieval and exam practice.
There are 23 short steps of about 15 minutes (roughly 6 hours of learning), each made of bite-size explanations with key words, tables and examples, and every bite-size is followed by an activity you check straight away. Key terms include Ionic bond, Ion, Giant ionic lattice, Empirical formula, Covalent bond, Molecule, Polymer, Monomer, Diamond, Graphite, Metallic bonding and Delocalised electron.
