A structured KS5 lesson including starter activity and AfL work tasks and main work tasks on Stereoisomerism in Complex Ions. Suitable for the AQA Specification.

**By the end of this lesson KS5 students should be able to:

To understand the types of stereoisomerism shown by metal complexes, including:

1. Cis-trans isomerism in square planar complexes
2. Cis–trans isomerism in octahedral complexes with monodentate and bidentate ligands
3. Optical isomerism in octahedral complexes with bidentate ligands

All tasks have worked out answers, which will allow students to self assess their work during the lesson

Declaimer: Please refrain from purchasing this popular resource for an interview lesson or a formal observation. This is because planning your own lessons including using your own lesson PowerPoints is a fundamental skill of a qualified/unqualified teacher that will be reviewed during these scenarios outlined above
