Description
Intermediate 1 Chemistry offers a full colour text for pupils studying Chemistry at Access 3 and Intermediate 1 Level. The three main sections of the book follow the three units as described in the SQA's National Course Specification. The nine Prescribed Practical Activities are embedded in these along with a variety of questions. 'Within the Text' questions are inserted as required and each unit has three short tests, corresponding to sub-unit tests and inserted at appropriate points. Study questions in the style of an end of unit test are provided at the end of each section, and a Glossary of Terms is provided at the end of each section.
Reviews / Votes
The book is well illustrated and care has been taken to use language that is simple and accessible. This is a useful book for pupils who might not regularly engage with texts. SSRMore details
