Nuffield Co-ordinated Sciences: Chemistry Students’ Book

The Nuffield Co-ordinated Sciences Chemistry book was printed in black-and-white in the first edition but illustrated in full colour in the second edition. There was no change in content between the two editions. The file for this resource is the second edition. The text included explanatory text, and questions. Symbols in the margins of the pages showed which skills students had to apply when responding to the text and questions. The book was designed to be studied alongside the activities described in the chemistry worksheets
