The Atmospheric Chemistry section of the AQA Chemistry specification explores the composition and evolution of the Earth’s atmosphere. Students learn about how the atmosphere has changed over time due to volcanic activity, the formation of oceans, and the appearance of photosynthetic organisms. The section also covers the greenhouse effect, including the role of carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapour in maintaining Earth’s temperature. Students study how human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation, contribute to climate change. The impact of air pollution, including the formation of carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and particulates, is discussed, along with their effects on health and the environment. Methods for reducing emissions and improving air quality are also considered.
The Rate of Reaction section of the AQA Chemistry specification explores how different factors affect the speed of chemical reactions. Students learn about collision theory and how the frequency and energy of collisions influence reaction rates. The section covers key factors affecting reaction rate, including temperature, concentration, pressure, surface area, and the use of catalysts. The role of activation energy and the effect of catalysts in lowering it are also discussed. Students study methods for measuring reaction rates, such as monitoring gas production, changes in mass, or colour changes. Additionally, the concept of reversible reactions and dynamic equilibrium is introduced, including the effect of changing conditions on equilibrium position as described by Le Chatelier’s Principle.

DownloadThe Chemical Analysis section of the AQA GCSE Chemistry specification focuses on identifying substances using chemical and instrumental techniques. It covers the difference between pure substances and mixtures, including formulations and chromatography for separating and analyzing compounds. Students learn about gas tests for oxygen, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and chlorine, as well as ion tests, such as flame tests for metal cations and precipitation reactions with sodium hydroxide. The section also includes tests for anions, like carbonates (using acid), sulfates (with barium chloride), and halides (with silver nitrate). For higher-tier students, instrumental analysis methods, including flame emission spectroscopy, are introduced, highlighting their advantages in accuracy and sensitivity. This topic develops key practical skills in qualitative analysis, helping students understand how chemists identify unknown substances.
