A Level Chemistry A Level Chemistry helps you understand the building blocks of the world around us — from the structure of atoms and molecules to the reactions that power life, industry, and the environment. It develops your ability to think logically, solve problems, and carry out practical investigations with precision. You’ll study the following key modules: Module 1 – Development of Practical Skills in Chemistry Learn how to plan and carry out experiments safely, record and analyse results, and evaluate evidence — essential skills for all scientists. Module 2 – Foundations in Chemistry Explore atomic structure, bonding, and the calculations that underpin chemical reactions. Module 3 – Periodic Table and Energy Study patterns and trends across the periodic table, and understand the role of energy changes in reactions and sustainability. Module 4 – Core Organic Chemistry Discover the chemistry of carbon-based compounds, including hydrocarbons and alcohols, and how they react and are used in everyday products. Module 5 – Physical Chemistry and Transition Elements Learn about reaction rates, equilibrium, and redox reactions, and investigate the distinctive properties of transition metals. Module 6 – Organic Chemistry and Analysis Extend your knowledge of organic molecules and develop analytical skills using modern instrumental techniques such as infrared and mass spectrometry. Throughout the course, you’ll complete a range of practical investigations, building a portfolio of skills that are highly valued in science-based degrees and careers. A Level Chemistry is excellent preparation for university courses in medicine, veterinary science, dentistry, biochemistry, environmental science, chemical engineering, and many other STEM subjects.
