Physical Chemistry & Transition Elements includes the study of Rates of Reaction, Equilibria, differing theories of Acids and associated calculations. It also includes the use of Born-Haber cycles, the study of Entropy & Free Energy as well as furthering the understanding of Transition Metals and their complex-ions. Organic Chemistry & Analysis includes the study of Aromatic compounds, Carbonyls, Esters and Carboxylic Acids, as well as Nitrogen containing compounds, Condensation polymers and multi-step synthesis. The Analysis section includes various methods of chromatography, Infrared spectroscopy and Mass Spectrometry.
Minimum requirements are level 6/7 in GCSE Science/Additional Science or a level 6/7 in separate Chemistry. A level 7 in GCSE Mathematics is also required.
A-level: This is a linear course, examined at the end of the two years. Student must keep a detailed lab diary demonstrating the development of key practical skills. These will be tested in the final written examination.
