Triple Science
From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki
Triple science is a GCSE option that can be picked in year nine (in the UK) when choosing GCSE subjects. Triple science contains learning extra topics in biology, chemistry and physics as well as more in depth views on basic combined science topics. Typically, you would be studying science for seven or eight hours a week rather than four hours a week for combined science students.

| Key ideas | [7] The five central themes of biology are structure and function of cells, interactions between organisms, homeostasis, reproduction and genetics, and evolution. |
[8] Triple Science Main Content: Chemistry[edit]
- Atomic structure and the periodic table
- Bonding, structure, and the properties of matter
- Quantitative chemistry
- Chemical changes
- Energy changes
- The rate and extent of chemical change
- Organic chemistry
- Chemical analysis
- Chemistry of the atmosphere
- Using resources
| Subject: | Content: | Explanation: |
|---|---|---|
| Chemistry | Atomic structure and the periodic table | [9] The periodic table is a table that logically organize all the known elements |
| Bonding, structure, and the properties of matter | [10] There are three types of strong chemical bonds: ionic, covalent and metallic | |
| Quantitative chemistry | [11] The branch of Chemistry that allows chemists to apply maths to chemical equations to work out the amount of different substances present | |
| Chemical changes | [12] Chemical changes happen when chemical reactions occur. They involve the formation of new chemical elements or compounds | |
| Energy changes | [13] Energy is absorbed to break bonds and released when bonds are made | |
| The rate and extent of chemical change | [14] The speed and extent to which a chemical reaction proceeds | |
| Organic chemistry | [15] The study of the millions of covalent compounds of the element carbon | |
| Chemical analysis | [16] The determination of the physical properties or chemical composition of samples of matter | |
| Chemistry of the atmosphere | [17] The branch of atmospheric science focused on chemical processes within Earth's atmosphere | |
| Using resources | [18] The study of ways to reduce waste, materials and resources |
[19] Triple Science Main Content: Physics[edit]
- Energy
- Electricity
- Particle model of matter
- Atomic Structure
- Forces
- Waves
- Magnetism and electromagnetism
- Space physics / Astrophysics (physics only)
| Subject: | Content: | Explanation: |
|---|---|---|
| Physics | Energy | [20] Simply the ‘ability to do work’ - it takes energy to cook food, to drive to school, and to jump in the air. There are different forms of Energy. |
| Electricity | [21] Electricity is the presence or flow of charged particles | |
| Particle model of matter | [22] A model that describes the arrangement and movement of particles in a substance | |
| Atomic Structure | [23] The structure of an atom comprising a nucleus (centre) in which the protons (positively charged) and neutrons (neutral) are present. The negatively charged particles called electrons revolve around the centre of the nucleus. | |
| Forces | [24] A force is a push or pull upon an object resulting from the object's interaction with another object | |
| Waves | [25] Waves are one of the ways in which energy may be transferred between stores. Waves can be described as oscillations, or vibrations about a rest position | |
| Magnetism and electromagnetism | [26] Magnetism and electromagnetism are essentially two sides of the same coin that differ in their phenomena. While magnetism refers to the phenomena associated with magnetic fields or magnetic, forces, electromagnetism is the phenomena associated with both magnetic fields and electric fields | |
| Space physics / Astrophysics (physics only) | [27] A branch of space science that applies the laws of physics and chemistry to seek to understand the universe and our place in it |
