What the college says

In key stage 5 chemistry students gain a deeper understanding of previously introduced core concepts which are built into several main topics. The first is physical chemistry where students gain a detailed understanding of, thermodynamics, rates of reaction, electrode potentials and acids, bases and pH. Next is inorganic chemistry, often referred to as the colourful section, in which students understand the science behind many applications and reactions of transition metals and their complex ions. Finally, students gain a better understanding of both aliphatic and aromatic synthesis pathways in the organic section of the course.
