What the simulation does – Displacement reaction A more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from a solution of its salt. The four metals are ordered by reactivity: magnesium, zinc, iron, copper (most to least reactive). A metal only displaces another that sits below it in the series. Layout The screen has a header, […]

What the simulation does The simulation puts a lit Bunsen burner on a lab bench with six metals laid out in watch glasses at the front: magnesium, calcium, zinc, iron, copper and gold, ordered by reactivity. A reactivity ladder runs down the side, and the whole thing follows a clear two-step loop. First a pupil

Required practical: Water Purification What the simulation does The simulation models the AQA GCSE required practical “Analysis and purification of water”. Pupils work through three stages on three unknown water samples — A (distilled), B (tap), C (sea water) — and build up evidence to decide which are pure and how to purify the impure

Simulation of Chemical Analysis (Ion Tests) Chemistry required practical: identifying the ions in an unknown ionic compound. The simulation is a 3D chemistry bench where pupils work as analysts, running qualitative tests on four unknown salts (Samples A–D) to identify both the metal cation and the negative anion in each, then name the compound. The

Simulation of Paper chromatography Simulation description This is a 3D paper chromatography simulation for the AQA GCSE Chemistry required practical on separating coloured substances and calculating Rf values. Pupils work through four guided steps. They begin by choosing an ink sample from four options: black ink, green ink, purple ink, or brown food dye. They
