Chemistry beyond the classroom! 🧬 Our Year 12 Chemistry students recently visited the @durhamuniversity Chemistry Department to experience degree-level laboratory work first-hand. On 24 March, students analysed drug compounds, identified unknown substances, and used advanced techniques such as Thin Layer Chromatography, Infrared Spectroscopy and melting point analysis - all within Durham's world-class labs. 🧪 From collecting and analysing real experimental data to working safely as a team, this visit offered an exciting insight into the rigour, challenge and real-world applications of studying Chemistry at University.
