Part of the Edexcel GCSE Combined Science curriculum.
Edexcel GCSE Combined Science Topic 6 Groups in the Periodic Table is a step-by-step online learn guide for GCSE students in Years 10 and 11, mapped to the Edexcel specification (Pearson Edexcel GCSE (9–1) Combined Science (1SC0) – Topic 6 Groups in the periodic table). It covers groups 1, 7 and 0 in the periodic table, alkali metals and water, reactivity of the alkali metals, the halogens and their properties, reactions of the halogens, halogen displacement reactions and the noble gases, 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 Group, Period, Soft, Tarnish, Reactivity, Shielding, Diatomic, Chlorine, Metal halide, Halide ion, Displacement and Oxidation.
