Beginning Science Chemistry

Beginning Science: Chemistry is for use during the first three years of secondary education, and provides a foundation for those going on to take GCSE examinations. It introduces the ideas, apparatus, and methods of chemistry, and describes a wide range of chemical reactions and techniques. Wherever possible, chemical principles are related to examples from everyday life, and industrial applications and their implications are considered. Thus as well as being a useful introduction to a more detailed study of chemistry, this book will help students who do not study the subject beyond Year 9 to gain a better understanding of the world in which they live.
