To study this subject successfully you need to: •Work hard on challenging concepts that really make you think •Love getting hands‐on experience in the lab to test out ideas • Enjoy using math's to solve problems in practical situations • Apply your knowledge in new situations Year 12: Module 1: Development of practical skills (throughout the course) Module 2: Foundations in Chemistry; moles, atomic structure & bonding, acid‐base titrations and redox Module 3: The Periodic table and Energy; The periodic table & periodicity, group 2 & 7, qualitative analysis, enthalpy changes, reaction rates and equilibrium (qualitative) Module 4: Core Organic Chemistry; basic concepts, hydrocarbons, alcohols and haloalkanes, organic synthesis, analytical techniques (IR and MS) Year 13: Module 5: Physical Chemistry and Transition Elements; reaction rates and equilibrium (quantitative), pH and buffers, enthalpy, entropy and free energy, redox and electrode potentials, transition elements Module 6: Organic Chemistry and Analysis; aromatic compounds, carbonyl compounds, carboxylic acids and esters, polymers, nitrogen compounds, organic synthesis, chromatography and spectroscopy (NMR)
8 or more GCSE passes at grade 5, equivalent or better including Math's and English Grade 77 in Combined Science or Grade 777 in Triple Science. Grade 6 in Math's is also required.
Year 12: Two internal assessments: Paper 1 — 1h30; 70 marks; 50% Y1 grade ‐ (does not count towards final A level grade) Paper 2 — 1h30; 70 marks; 50% Y1 grade ‐ (does not count towards final A level grade) (marks and timings are subject to change) Each paper has a mix of multiple choice, short answer and longer written answers Year 13: Three external assessments: Assessment 1: Periodic table, elements and physical chemistry (37% of total) Assessment 2: Synthesis and analytical techniques (37% of total) Assessment 3: Unified chemistry (26% of total) Each paper has a mix of multiple choice, short answer and longer written answers Practical Endorsement in chemistry (Reported separately as Pass/Fail based on lab work in school)
