Chemistry

Course summary

Chemistry bridges the gap between physical and biological science and views matter from an atomic and molecular perspective. The course combines experimental science and academic study with practical and investigational skills. All DP students will undertake the Group 4 project, a collaborative project across the sciences, working together to design, implement, assess and report on an area of scientific investigation. This project is held in the Autumn Term of the Lower Sixth. Higher Level course will study areas in greater depth and complexity. • A core programme including: quantitative chemistry, atomic structures, periodicity, bonding, energetics, kinetics, equilibriums, acids and bases, oxidations and reduction, organic chemistry.
