IB Dip Y2 Chemistry PowerPoint Slides and More

NOTA BENE! NOTA BENE! NOTA BENE!
I am in the process of replacing all the javascript-powered online PowerPoint slides (which don’t render well anymore on many browsers) with blog posts containing embeds of the actual PowerPoint slides for your benefit.
Those that have been updated are labeled “Updated.”
Additionally, if you are interested in downloading the PowerPoint slides, instead of browsing through them online, click here. (It will take you to the IB Chemistry Year 2 folder in my Google Drive.

***The folder now ALSO includes a subfolder called “Worksheets” containing…of course worksheets, organized by topic! Additionally, the folders containing the PowerPoints slides on a topic also include solutions to problems appearing in the slides.***)

Revamping my HTML-based homepage and making it considerably leaner, I removed many of its contents. Those that I think others might still find useful — notably the science resources — I am reproducing them here.

This is a reproduction of the page containing links to the online PowerPoint slides I used when I taught second year IB Diploma chemistry students (click here for the first year materials) a long time ago. It also contains links to other useful resources.

NB. This is a reproduction of something that was last revised and updated in January 2010! If the curriculum has changed since then–which I am sure it has because IB revises them every four years–it’s your responsibility to identify the relevant from the irrelevant.
