    Hey there's a whole list of practical procedures given here : http://www.xtremepapers.me/Edexcel/i...%20Practicals/

    You might want to select the ones which are relevant to the new spec though

    The list is really useful, but how do we study the experiments, do we need to memorize the procedures and how to plan one?
