From the moment you are born, and throughout your life, you are surrounded by Chemistry – the air you breathe, the food you eat and the clothes you wear – they’re all Chemistry. Chemistry is the study of substances; what they are made of, how they interact with each other, and the role they play in living things. Whether you want to care for penguin colonies in Antarctica or work in a dynamic business environment, Chemistry can help you. From research in space, to the depths of the oceans, Chemistry helps you understand the world around you and opens up lots of career opportunities. Module 1: Development of practical skills in chemistry Module 2: Foundations in chemistry Module 3: Periodic table and energy Module 4: Core organic chemistry Module 5: Physical chemistry and transition elements Module 6: Organic chemistry and analysis
The course has been designed for students who have completed GCSE Dual Science or Chemistry Triple Award. You must have at least a grade 5 in both Science/Chemistry and Mathematics.
There are three examination papers: Paper 1: Periodic table, elements and physical chemistry (37%, 135 minutes) Paper 2: Synthesis and analytical techniques (37%, 135 minutes) Paper 3: Unified chemistry (26%, 90 minutes) There is no coursework but there is a pass or fail Practical Endorsement that is achieved by students demonstrating their competence in a variety of activities undertaken throughout the A Level course.
