A course with both theoretical and practical aspects, details for the topics are shown below. Modules 1-4 common to AS and A Level, modules 5 and 6 only taken as part of the full A Level in chemistry. Module 1: Development of practical skills in chemistry Module 2: Foundations in chemistry – atoms, compounds, molecules and equations, amount of substance, acid-base and redox reactions, electrons, bonding and structure Module 3: Periodic table and energy – periodicity, group 2 and 7, qualitative analysis, enthalpy changes, reaction rates and equilibrium (qualitative) Module 4: Core organic chemistry – basic concepts, hydrocarbons, alcohols and haloalkanes, organic synthesis, analytical techniques (IR and MS) Module 5: Physical chemistry and transition elements– reaction rates and equilibrium (quantitative), pH and buffers, enthalpy, entropy and free energy, redox and redox potentials, transition elements Module 6: Organic chemistry and analysis –aromatic compounds, carbonyl compounds, carboxylic acids and esters, nitrogen compounds, polymers, organic synthesis, chromatography and spectroscopy (NMR) Career & Further Study: Chemistry can be used as a basis for the study of Sciences at University. It is also a pre-requisite for entry to Medicine and Medicinal Science courses at University. A fundamental understanding of Chemistry is required for virtually all forms of university scientific education and research. Chemistry A Level is also a useful stepping stone towards engineering training and careers. Chemical engineering is a subject that allows students with a practical interest in Math's and Chemistry to apply their skills to real life problems such as the flow of hot melted chocolate in a chocolate factory or the fermentation of beer at a brewery. Due to the mathematical and modelling skills involved, students with Chemistry A Level often move into Financial/Economic research/employment.
Two 6 grades in the sciences, 6 in Maths and 5.5 average in English.
