Chemistry
Course summary
The chemistry course is divided into three sections, with each encompassing the relevant practical skills. - Component 1: physical chemistry bonding, thermodynamics, kinetics and equilibria. - Component 2: inorganic chemistry periodicity, electrochemistry and study of the transition metals. - Component 3: organic chemistry studying the reactions of various homologous series, organic synthesis and chemical analysis. The chemistry course has a large practical element with a minimum of twelve required practical tasks throughout the two year course. Chemistry can be combined with any other subjects but goes particularly well with physics, mathematics, biology and geography.
