Part of the Eduqas GCSE Combined Science curriculum.
Eduqas GCSE Combined Science Topics 10–12 Carbon Compounds, Materials and the Earth is a step-by-step online learn guide for GCSE students in Years 10 and 11, mapped to the Eduqas specification (Eduqas GCSE (9–1) Combined Science (C430) – Concepts in Chemistry, Topics 10–12: Carbon compounds; Production, use and disposal of important chemicals and materials; The Earth and its atmosphere). It covers crude oil and fractional distillation, alkanes, alkenes and cracking, burning fuels and addition polymers, life-cycle assessment and recycling, potable water, the Earth's atmosphere then and now and greenhouse effect, climate change and air pollution, 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 Crude oil, Hydrocarbon, Alkane, Alkene, Complete combustion, Incomplete combustion, Life-cycle assessment, Finite resource, Potable water, Aquifer, Early atmosphere and Photosynthesis.
