2. Course description Summary: Are you fascinated by chemical reactions? Do you want to explore the world of atoms and molecules? If so, chemistry is for you. Course description: On this course you will develop a range of skills such as making observations, collecting data, titration and organic synthesis. Links with the University of East Anglia allow college students to work alongside undergraduates, such as on spectroscopy day. Work includes lectures, note taking, question and answer sessions, problem solving, written work and model building. Classes include demonstrations and practical laboratory work. You are likely to enjoy and do well at this this subject if you: - Are intrigued by the science that you have studied so far and want to know more. - Can understand and remember lots of facts and abstract concepts. - Enjoy practical laboratory work. - Can cope fairly easily with mathematics and like to use it in problem solving. - Are prepared to work hard and have a go at any questions you are set. Units studied include: - the structure of atoms and how they form bonds - chemical reactions - the periodic table and groups within it - quantities and the mole concept - groups of organic materials - making new chemicals - analysing the structure of unknown substances Combining chemistry with physics and mathematics will equip you for a wide range of options, including careers in science, engineering and technology. Chemistry also complements biology well, helping students to understand molecular biology and biochemistry. Chemistry can be useful for those who wish to study psychology, environmental science, archaeology, art or photography. You can find out more about chemistry through or by looking at any A level Chemistry textbook.
