A measure of the hydrogen ion (H⁺) concentration in a solution.

A chemical reaction between an acid and base to produce a neutral solution of a metal salt and water.

A substance that neutralises an acid to form a salt and water.

In the Electrolysis unit, pupils will build on their understanding of chemical reactions to explore the process of electrolysis and its applications.

In the Acids and Bases unit, pupils learned about the properties of acids, bases, and alkalis, and the reactions between them to form salts and water.

This unit explores empirical formulae, balanced chemical and ionic equations, gas identification, acid reactions, and pH as a measure of hydrogen ion concentration. It covers separation techniques and focuses on planning experiments, accurate measurements, safety, and communicating findings.
