This is a laboratory based subject where frequent experiments reinforce theoretical concepts and help solve chemical problems. The syllabus is divided between Physical chemistry - the nature, trends and properties of substances; Inorganic chemistry - the chemistry of all elements except carbon and its compounds and Organic chemistry - the chemistry and synthesis of carbon compounds. We recommend AS Maths to support the calculations in Chemistry.
