Hi, I am going to be sitting for Edexcel Chemistry A level examination. I will sit for all 6 units in one sitting. Could anyone recommend me the perfect textbook that would cover all the necessary topics for the 6 units? Your help is greatly appreciated
I have just watched the sitcom 'the big bang theory' and I thought about Sheldon's game of elements. How about that? I would create a thread in which the members name the elements, based on the characteristics of elements and hints of PSE. Who want to take part?
Hey guys, I just finished my AS levels (woo), and I was planning on starting A2 chemistry (AQA) now during the summer holidays, does anyone have any ideas about how I should go about doing this? I.e, books to buy, YouTube channels, websites that would aid learning?
Having trouble with Physical Chemistry in University. I just couldn't seem to pass anything that involved Physical Chem and I want to be able to get it all in my head by the time I go back. Has anyone got any websites/books that will help me? I've just finished first year Chem, second year starts in October! Much Appreciated!

Atkins physical chemistry is awesome.
Wikipedia is a good site for an overview of most things as well.

Atkins Physical Chemistry is not a bad place to start.
Also take a look at the Oxford Chemistry Primer series, there are about 100 of them covering different topics and they are usually a good place to start. They should have a number of them in any decent university library, but they are usually only ~£20, so if you have a book grant from your university, you might want to get certain ones for yourself.

There isn't website like you get at A-level. You need to use textbooks, e.g. atkins. Post any queries on the chem forum and I'm sure you'll find someone who can help

Organic chemistry counts to my favorites too, Carbon compounds fascinate me. Apart from that the structure of atoms and their properties are interesting too.

Chemistry cubed (chemistry^3) might be good. I remember a lot of people in my year using that book to understand the basic concepts. Just be careful about how much you read into the stuff with Atkins though: a lot of it is unnecessary for first year.
