Chemistry AS Unit 1 CCEA 2016

How did everyone think of the exam today?

There were loads of suggest questions and I found them for the most part really tricky, like the ones for the decomposition of hydrogen halides. A lot of them were guesses. The recall questions were fine but a lot of the paper was applying knowledge which was quite hard.
I thought the multiple choice questions were hard too but I think I got them all

I couldn't believe there were 18 questions

How did others at your school find it?

I found it ok didnt think it was unbelievably hard.. What was the question for that decomposition of halides cant remember it That 6 marker on graphite and graphene was a gift Dont think i got some of he multiple choice the maths ones were tricky but i found myself getting C as an answer quite a bit??
Others in my school found it very very hard how about yours?

I got C for the first 3 multiple choice and the B for 4 and 5, A for 6. I got 10.H2O for the hydrate and I can't remember the rest. I don't remember th decomposition question properly either. Well there are 3 that do it at my school and we all found it hard.
It wasn't overly hard but I found it harder than the 2015 paper.
Hoping for low grade boundaries

can someone help me out and tell me what question number the percentage mass question was? the one that the answer turned out to be around 63%?

It was the last part on Q16. Not sure which part though (b/c etc). Glad you got 63% too because I was unsure about my answer

Am I the only person that finds it very difficult to find any information about CCEA chemitsry on the internet compared to AQA and EDEXCEL? I know less people do CCEA but there is a ridiculous lack of resources.

I thought the exam was really tough, got the first two in the mulitple choice wrong purely becuase i didnt read the question properly. The fire alarm went off 15 minutes before the exam and the school was evacuated so that kind of through me although we arent getting any extra marks. Does anyone know where i could find model answers?

how many marks were there on questions 17 and 18 do you know?

I genuinely can't remember. Did you not get them finished?

worse, I didn't see that they were there because of the blank page separating them and question 16

I have the paper in front of me here 17 and 18 were worth 20 marks total. I really feel for you I left out pages in my m1 last week! Hope you do well anyhow.

I know this isn't relevant but were you doing ccea m1?
