Uses simple language to clearly explain the basic principles *Guides students through each exercise with help and hint boxes as they gradually progress through the text *Covers variants of each type of calculation "Calculations in AS and A Level Chemistry fills a gap in the market and provides excellent coverage of the calculations needed at A Level. Add and customize text, images, and fillable fields, whiteout unnecessary details, highlight the important ones, and comment on your updates. There are then lots of worked examples, gradually getting more difficult and showing as many variations on a calculation as possible. A poor condition book can still make a good reading copy but is generally not collectible unless the item is very scarce.

Transferable skills, needed for progression into higher education and employment, are signposted allowing students to understand, and engage with, the skills they’re gaining. Suitable for use with all AS and A Level specifications, it helps students to understand mathematical concepts specific to AS and A Level Chemistry. Reviewed by a language specialist to ensure the book is written in a clear and accessible style for students whose first language may not be English. The unique set of circumstances provides an exciting opportunity for the discovery and application of new green chemistry solutions to these sustainability challenges. Speeding down the steep slopes of soft sand at Crantock on a Christmas day must have been thrilling, at first.As someone who has zero sporting interest or ability, I always saw that as a waste of my skills, and eventually came to a compromise where I provided a space for supervising off-games pupils and used the time for a chemistry clinic for A-Level students needing a little extra support.

That is because you will find what you need to know at this level in my chemistry calculations book (see link below). We are investigating a range of green chemical technologies and their application to major chemical challenges. Tony Harris' artwork credits include Starman, Aquaman, Iron Man, JSA, Batman: Legends of the Dark Knight and Daredevil. It was written to cover the calculations in UK AS and A level chemistry syllabuses (roughly for ages 16 - 18 years), but chemistry calculations are just the same wherever in the world you are working. After a difficult day he decided to go home and begin a spot of DIY, taking his frustrations out on an old greenhouse with a concrete block base.But it wasn’t only the outstanding students that we were successful with – there were plenty of ‘average’ students who achieved more than they ever expected.

The majority of pages are undamaged with some creasing or tearing, and pencil underlining of text, but this is minimal. Youcanknowallthecalculations,thehardthingisknowingwhentoapplythemandIthinkyoucan'tlearntheseskillsthroughabook.Chapters are clearly laid out, with plenty of worked examples, and there are helpful notes throughout. is joint author (with Steve Owen and Rachel Yu) of Edexcel International GCSE (9-1) Chemistry published in 2017. That will give you the full contents list and the index, the first 6 pages of Chapter 1, and all the answers to the problems in the book - including the fully worked answers. In those days, as well as A-Levels there were harder S-Level papers available, and most years you might have two or three chemistry students doing S-Level exams. These include environmentally friendly heterogeneous catalysis, energy efficient microwave and ultrasonic-activated processes, supercritical fluid extraction of valuable chemicals from plants, and novel materials derived from biomass.

The resulting back injury required the attendance and use of the Cornwall Air Ambulance, as can be seen in the picture. Biography: Jim Clark is a Cambridge graduate with over 30 years of teaching experience at this level. Provides free access to an ActiveBook, a digital version of the Student Book, which can be accessed online, anytime, anywhere supporting learning beyond the classroom. Beware that this book is no longer appropriate for Edexcel International GCSE examinations from 2011 onwards, and has been out of print for some time. Calculations in A Level Chemistry guides your students through the various types of calculations whi .

In fact it is now being used by people on equivalent (16 to 18 year old) courses worldwide and by students at the beginning of university level courses.

The last year of 11+ (which uniquely included some 10+ students as well that year – my son, Paul was one) generated one of the best years ever. One parent told me later that it was this experience that decided them on sending their daughter to the school. Now I proudly tell every new A-Level cohort about Jim Clark and his Truro School legacy, and year on year, my students use ‘Chemguide’ to develop and enhance their chemical knowledge.
