This Guide supports study and revision for IBDP Chemistry Paper 3, for students planning to answer questions on Option A: Materials. It reviews all SL and HL topics, summarising the essential information needed for the exam. Coverage includes:
metals and inductively coupled plasma spectroscopy; catalysts; liquid crystals; polymers and condensation polymers; nanotechnology; superconducting metals and X-Ray crystallography; and the environmental impact of plastics and heavy metals. Key features: concise definitions of key terms and concepts; key point and author's tip margin boxes; clearly presented diagrams, graphs, and tables; and practice questions to test familiarity.
