Free Year 10 Chemical Sciences Worksheets

6 free chemical sciences resources for Year 10: 6 worksheets. Answers included.

Materials, their properties and how they change. Year 10 students solve more complex equations, work with linear graphs, meet Pythagoras' theorem and trigonometry, and expand binomials.

Students will practise: describing the properties of acids and bases; using the pH scale to classify and compare substances; predicting the colours of common indicators; writing word equations for neutralisation reactions; naming the salts formed from common acids; describing reactions of acids with metals and carbonates and testing for the gases; explaining everyday uses of neutralisation; describing the charge, relative mass and location of subatomic particles.

Common questions

What do Year 10 students learn about chemical sciences?

Materials, their properties and how they change. At Year 10, our resources focus on: describing the properties of acids and bases; using the pH scale to classify and compare substances; predicting the colours of common indicators; writing word equations for neutralisation reactions.

Where should we start?

Start with the Level 1 or Level 2 worksheet, then move up a level. Finish with the topic test if there is one.

Are answers included?

Yes — every worksheet has an answer sheet. Maths answer sheets show the working; English tasks include model answers or success criteria.

How to use these resources

  1. Read the short explanation together before starting the questions.
  2. Where a worksheet suggests a simple experiment at home, try it: seeing beats reading.
  3. Ask "How do you know?" so answers are backed by evidence.
  4. Use the answer sheet to talk about why an answer is right, not just whether it is.
