About the Book
HKDSE Chemistry is a series of revision guides and practice questions prepared in an order of progressive difficulty for the students. The questions in this book have been grouped into chapter topics following the order as that of the syllabus.
Each topic begins with a section of Warm up Questions, followed by Revision Summary. They identify the core knowledge, basic application of the concepts and experimental skills that you must grasp when answering exam questions.
The section of Further Questions in each topic extends the depth and breadth of knowledge of those students aiming at Levels 5 and above at the HKDSE Exam. Questions here go beyond the limits of the core material to provide additional exercise on quality of communication, STSE applications, practical skills, analysis and syntheses of concepts from different chapters.

About the Book
Taking up this book to study means the readers are really serious in this subject; and would like to go beyond its core knowledge as covered by the previous books.
In this book, the Warm-up Exercises as found previously in the more elementary Books 1 and 2 were removed. Each Chapter in this book begins with a collection of searching multiple choice questions, which spot check any gaps in understanding and knowledge. Conventional questions follow straight ahead, to allow the readers to take the bull by the horns.

About the Book
Ever since the HKDSE Chemistry has come into operation since 2012, a great majority of the candidates (96 – 97%) have been consistently taking the combination of Industrial Chemistry and Analytical Chemistry as their electives in Paper 2 of the exam. When revising previous editions of these two electives, the opportunity has been taken to combine the two separate books into a single copy, to save cost for our readers and the parents.
In this book, each chapter now begins with some keynote summaries that are designed to refresh our reader’s memory on key concepts, and as a prompt to work which still needs to be done. This is followed by a broad range of exam style practice questions that have been updated to reflect current format and depths and structured in a way to highlight common pitfalls that have caught out the common candidates.

About the Book
HKDSE Chemistry is an innovative series designed to cover the three elective topics found on the chemistry syllabus of the HKDSE Exam.
Questions in this book provide a range of exam style practice questions covering the breadth of content likely to be encountered in exams at this level. The questions draw on real exam data that can be set on a particular topic; both from local and overseas exam boards. They have also been structured in a way to identify common pitfalls that have caught out other students.
This book present the answers immediately after each question. This is not to discourage active thinking and learning; but to allow students to fish out the new information more easily if they need a revision later on. As new developments from some of the topics are coming out almost every day, students may find this book contains quite a bit of new information not found in the other textbooks.
