Maths in chemistry

You can hide this advertisement by registering.
Hey, I'm in yr 11 and currently doing 2U maths and chemistry.
I'm loving chemistry and going pretty well, like 90%'s and top 10 ranking, but maths is my worst subject and I'm thinking of dropping next year.
I just wanted to know from year 12's how much maths there is in yr 12 chem,
cos this year there isn't too much, nothing overly complicated anyhow its just rearranging formulas really,
But next year I was wondering, would it be beneficial to continue maths to help with chemistry, or is the chem maths not going to get much harder than what it is now?

Re: Maths in chemistry

Chemistry maths is just like Year 10 Maths. Simple re-arranging the formulas.

Re: Maths in chemistry

yeh chemistry has no 'maths' in the senes of calculus or anything like that.

They give you formulas (not a lot of them),a dn its just substituting values in

Re: Maths in chemistry

Chem equations are solved via substitution and rearranging - you'll be fine

Re: Maths in chemistry

I'm the exact opposite. I'm coming top 5 in Maths yet failing Chemistry mainly because of all the calculations with moles in it.
