AQA GCSE Physics: Atomic Structure – Revision & Practice Workbook (PDF)

Master Atomic Structure for AQA GCSE Physics (8463) – with confidence.

A focused, exam-ready workbook covering the complete Topic 4, in spec order. Each page teaches one part of the topic, then puts it straight into practice with exam-style questions, so students go from "I've seen it" to "I can do it."

WHAT'S INSIDE

• Atoms and isotopes – the structure of the atom, the development of the atomic model and alpha particle scattering

• Atoms and nuclear radiation – alpha, beta, gamma and neutron radiation, identifying radiation, nuclear equations, half-life graphs and calculations, contamination and irradiation

• Hazards and uses of radiation – background radiation and uses of nuclear radiation in medicine

• Nuclear fission and fusion

• An "I Can Do It" checklist to tick off every spec point

• Full answers and mark schemes for every page

Triple-only content is clearly flagged, so Combined Science students know exactly what to skip.

WHO IT'S FOR

GCSE students revising Atomic Structure, parents supporting study at home, and teachers or tutors who want ready-made, spec-aligned practice.
