Organic Analysis A level chemistry workbook

A 13-page independent study workbook for AQA AS and A-level Chemistry Organic Analysis (specification reference 3.3.6).

Please note: this is an independent study workbook by design. Students are guided to research and construct their own answers using their textbook and class notes so answers are not provided. This approach is intentional: it builds the research, note-making, and application skills that examiners reward.

Organic analysis is a topic where the difference between a good grade and a great one often comes down to the finer details, particularly in mass spectrometry and infrared spectroscopy. This workbook goes well beyond the basics, and includes original expert guidance and exam tips developed from years of teaching and tutoring experience at A-level.

What’s covered:
• Test tube reactions for AS and A-level Year 1
• Mass spectrometry, including the mass spectrometry of halogenoalkanes - material that goes significantly beyond the standard textbook treatment and is particularly valuable for students targeting the highest grades
• Infrared spectroscopy, including original expert tips for answering infrared spectroscopy exam questions confidently and accurately

Structured as a series of questions and activities, the workbook challenges students to apply their knowledge as they learn, make synoptic links between topics, and develop the depth of understanding needed to access the higher mark questions in the exam.

Ideal for:
• Students targeting grades A and A*
• Independent learners and external candidates
• Home learning, revision, and supplementing classroom teaching

Compatible with any AQA A-level Chemistry textbook.
