Chemistry

Course summary

There is an aspect of Chemistry in everything we do: from launching a space shuttle to growing and cooking food, to cleaning our homes and bodies, or even keeping fit. Chemistry is the study of matter: allowing us to understand the properties and behaviour of chemical substances, how they interact with each other and the associated energy changes. A Level Chemistry is split into the traditional three branches of Chemistry namely Physical, Inorganic and Organic. The Biochemistry unit provides a good link to A Level Biology.
