Abstract Learning anxiety is a kind of negative psychological emotion that exists in students widely. This paper selected 108 grade 11 students as the study object, and analyzed chemistry anxiety from four dimensions:learning-chemistry anxiety, handling-chemistry anxiety, chemistry-evaluation anxiety and chemistry-teacher anxiety. Results showed that the overall chemistry anxiety of students was in a low level, learning-chemistry anxiety was the highest and chemistry-evaluation anxiety was the lowest. There were five boys in high anxiety group, and opposite to overall situation, chemistry-evaluation anxiety was the most serious type of chemistry anxiety.
