My guess is that this is B3?

Am I the only one who found the paper awfully hard? And I also got similar answers..

Some more where

12.5 N/m (for the spring constant question)
Another I wrote that the graph had a positive correlation & directly proportional
For the page of glucose questions for the bottom two i got Respiration and then oxygen

I'll think of more later, it's hard to remember HAHA

Yeah the paper was quite hard tbh, I thought I flopped it but now I'm glad that my answers are similar to other people's so there's a chance I didn't flop. Still one more paper to go!

You know the question about what element has the same electronic structure as a Potassium ion what did everyone put?? Because I wrote "Argon" but Everyone has seem to have wrote "Sodium" ... I just thought that the electronic structure of Argon was 2,8,8 and when Potassium loses an electron to become an ion it also becomes 2,8,8 can someone reassure me and let me know I'm right/wrong because it's stressing me out even though it's one mark :/

I also wrote sodium however if that's the case about argon and potassium having 2,8,8 then perhaps you may get a mark if it's on the mark scheme, don't worry about it since it's only one mark

its just im almost certain it said which element has the exact same electronic structure as potassium, and so the only answer would be argon ?! i dont know hhaha that was the only answer i was confident on

Did anyone find the question on circuits to be quite hard? Tbh the paper was quite hard, there were some questions i could answer, but overall it was hard. i just hope unit 6 isn't too difficult..

I wrote lithium because they both had the same charge.. oops
