Welcome to your NCEA Level 2 Chemistry website.
This site supports Level 2 Chemistry NCEA course created in alignment with Level 7 of New Zealand Curriculum.
An exciting and challenging year of Chemistry is ahead of you. You will be writing three external Achievement Standards and three internal Achievement Standards.
Work hard and enjoy your Chemistry. If difficulties arise, ask for help and make good use of tutoring.
This site contains description of the whole yearly course, useful web resources and interesting articles from the chemistry field.
Students will study the following:
Properties and changes of matter
• Investigate and measure the chemical and physical properties of a range of
groups of substances, for example, acids and bases, oxidants and reductants,
and selected organic and inorganic compounds.
The structure of matter
• Relate properties of matter to structure and bonding.
• Develop an understanding of and use the fundamental concepts of
chemistry (for example, equilibrium and thermochemical principles) to
interpret observations.
Chemistry and society
• Apply knowledge of chemistry to explain aspects of the natural world and
how chemistry is used in society to meet needs, resolve issues, and develop
new technologies.
