On Wednesday 22nd November, the Year 13 Chemistry class had an amazing experience at the University of Wolverhampton. The activities of the day incorporated many of the skills needed to succeed at A-Level Chemistry.

The first session started with an experiment involving the use of activated carbon to purify water using specialised equipment. In the second practical, we used potatoes to generate electricity to light up LEDs, we then took this further to look at electrochemical cells. It ended with several interesting lectures regarding drug discovery and cancer.

We were impressed by the selection of food provided by the university and thoroughly enjoyed the day!
