They were supported by a Book of Data which students needed to consult regularly.
Later in the course students studied one of several Special Studies: each study had a separate booklet and they were designed to help students appreciate the links between chemistry and its applications.
HEALTH and SAFETY
Any use of a resource that includes a practical activity must include a risk assessment. Please note that collections may contain ARCHIVE resources, which were developed at a much earlier date. Since that time there have been significant changes in the rules and guidance affecting laboratory practical work. Further information is provided in our Health and Safety guidance.
