This course answers questions such as: Why is copper sulfate blue? Why is water a liquid at room temperature whilst carbon dioxide is a gas? How can we address the problem of our reliance on crude oil? Throughout the course, students make sense of the different aspects of Chemistry they have studied at GCSE and discover the reasons behind the theories, observations, and concepts they have previously encountered. The course follows on from the Combined Science GCSE course and Chemistry GCSE course. Therefore, some of the topics covered will be familiar to students, while others will be completely new, such as making electrical cells, drug synthesis, and analyzing chemicals using spectroscopy. This course is exciting and challenging, helping students understand the world around them.
All students must achieve at least five grades 5-9 (including Maths and English). Students are expected to have gained at least a Grade 7 in Chemistry or Combined Science, and at least a Grade 6 in Mathematics.
