Key features:
  • Chapter opener includes key knowledge statements and outcomes
  • Each chapter is divided into clear-cut sections which finish with a set of summary points and key questions
  • Chapter review questions are found at the end of each chapter
  • Chemistry in Action boxes contain Chemistry in an applied situation of relevant context
  • ChemCAL boxes flag the ChemCAL website which is found on Exam Cafe Online.
  • Extension boxes contain material which goes beyond the core content of the study design
  • The Area of Study Review includes a large range of exam-style questions both multiple choice and extended response
  • The 'Cutting Edge' spreads are written by practising Australian scientists and have been updated to the most modern Chemistry to life while addressing this vital area of the study design
  • Chemfacts are snippets of information that add interest and relevance to the text
  • The glossary at the end of the book can be used to check the meaning of important words
  • A comprehensive index is included and appendices include important support material.
