Chemistry for CCEA AS Level

Fully updated to cover the current CCEA AS Level Chemistry specification.

Following the same content as the specification, the book is presented in full colour with over one hundred illustrations. The bright, clear layout will aid students’ understanding of the course. Over 600 questions and worked examples are provided throughout to reinforce learning and aid preparation for the exam. The answers are supplied. A Practical Assessment section is included to address the AS 3 Basic Practical Chemistry unit. The text is also supported by a glossary of terms, broken down by chapter.

The book has been through a thorough quality assurance check by an independent Chemistry expert. The author, Wingfield Glassey, is experienced in the subject and currently teaches A Level Chemistry at a Northern Ireland grammar school.
