CHEMISTRY

Board Developed Course (ATAR)

Chemistry is the branch of Science concerned with the composition of substances, the nature of matter and materials, and the interaction between substances.

The emphasis of this course is on the impact of chemistry on our everyday lives. Students will investigate the physical and chemical properties of a wide range of substances, their reactions and processes.

Chemistry attempts to provide chemical explanations and to predict events at the atomic and molecular level.

Students who succeed in Chemistry have an interest in scientific procedures; are able to think logically; and enjoy problem solving.
