This is a summary of Chemistry for foundation-year Health and Science students progressing to Physiotherapy, Radiotherapy, Nursing, and much more. There is a total of 9 weeks' summary. 1. Atomic Structure 2. Measurements & Calculations 3. Quantum Mechanics & Energy Levels 4. Calculation & The Periodic Table 5. Bonding 6. Chemcial Equilibria 7. Introduction To Organic Chemistry 8. Alkenes 9. Alcohols & Carbonyl Compounds ----- *After Examination (Exam date: 7th May, 2025) Only for Keele International College Students: Remember that all the content written in this note will be tested in the examination. Instead, in week 4, knowing the basics of calculation and the first 20 elements of the periodic table will be enough to grapple with the exam, and the other contents I wrote in week 4 were self-taught with the help of YouTube videos. ----- Wishing you all the best of luck!
