About This PDF
This series has been developed for the teaching of forensic chemistry, and to provide a forensic context for teaching applications of basic analytical chemistry concepts. This downloadable PDF resource extends on the concepts introduced in Chemistry 1 – the use of chemical analysis to examine items and materials gathered from a crime scene, suspect or victim, with the aim of providing information to assist a criminal investigation. Some units are self contained, while others involve practical experiments and exercises.
