Re: OCR AS Salters Chemistry F332 - Wednesday 23rd May 2012 1:30pmI don't remember these two questions! Could someone remind me of these please?!!
edit: i remember the e=hv questions but not the titration questions. I thought i missed out a page or something coz u put those questions at the end of ur markscheme which i couldn't recall.Last edited by EstebanK0; 27-05-2012 at 22:55. -
Re: OCR AS Salters Chemistry F332 - Wednesday 23rd May 2012 1:30pmfor one of the answers, on what type of bond breaking is this :-(Original post by SimpleGirl)
Question in the pre-release section: What type of reaction is shown in figure 1?
i put HOMOLYTIC rather than HOMOLYTIC FISSION...would i loose that mark ?
so for that question :- whether it had an overall dipole, is the molecule non-polar or polar?
thank you -
Re: OCR AS Salters Chemistry F332 - Wednesday 23rd May 2012 1:30pmit was like bromine is 36.00cm^3 and with a conc of 0.0200moldm^-3 and something else was 25.00cm^-3(Original post by EstebanK0)

so you had to work out the moles of the (other compound which i cant remember)
and that was for 2 marks i think
then it asked " calculate the moles of bromine in the solution"--- so the ratio was 1 to 1 so just put what you got in first question for this one
that was 1 mark
and the last bit asked to work out the something else of bromine
sorry thats all i can remember :/ -
Re: OCR AS Salters Chemistry F332 - Wednesday 23rd May 2012 1:30pmwhat were the changes you made? please could you let me know those few questions you added, and maybe post the modified markscheme?(Original post by matt1107)
I made some changes because they were wrong, and added a few questions =D -
Re: OCR AS Salters Chemistry F332 - Wednesday 23rd May 2012 1:30pmFrom what I've seen in past papers, it's usually either homolysis or homolytic fission that's accepted. I suppose there's still a chance they could award you the mark but my guess would be that without the 'fission' part in your answer, you'll most likely drop a mark there.(Original post by sharon800)

Another poster said after going through the paper with their teacher, she was told there was no overall dipole. But someone else posted later on and said their teacher told him the expected answer at A level for that question is usually a dipole is present. So, we don't actually know for sure.

Re: OCR AS Salters Chemistry F332 - Wednesday 23rd May 2012 1:30pmOMG i also just put homolytic as well!!! Ah man, i better not lose that easy mark! =.=(Original post by SimpleGirl)

Re: OCR AS Salters Chemistry F332 - Wednesday 23rd May 2012 1:30pmNow I'm over-thinking and can't remember whether I put the whole thing or just homolytic(Original post by misspinx20)

Re: OCR AS Salters Chemistry F332 - Wednesday 23rd May 2012 1:30pmLOOL don't stress yourself woman(Original post by SimpleGirl)

I'm sure they'll accept it, since in most papers they do allow just 'homolytic'.
And they did ask what 'type' of bond breaking process it is...not just 'what type of process is this called?' If they asked that question then it would make sense to write in the fission bit...if that makes sense. -

Oh, if it asked for the type of bond breaking then they may allow just homolytic. We'll see. -
Re: OCR AS Salters Chemistry F332 - Wednesday 23rd May 2012 1:30pmLook at the F332 Mark Scheme for January 2010. Link below. Answer for question 1)(c)(i) says; Homolytic (fission) / Homolysis. The words in the brackets are not required. You will get the mark(Original post by SimpleGirl)

Re: OCR AS Salters Chemistry F332 - Wednesday 23rd May 2012 1:30pmWell it really depends on UMS. It wasn't a bad paper, so I'm guessing the grade boundaries might have been high. You could still get an A if the grade boundaries are low.(Original post by sharon800)
can you like loose 30 odd marks, and still get an A in F332 Unit? -
Re: OCR AS Salters Chemistry F332 - Wednesday 23rd May 2012 1:30pmwhat the highest its ever been for an A?(Original post by misspinx20)

i made silly mistakes, like "homolytic fission" as "homolytic"
wrong molecular formula
and i messed up on that fingerprint region question :/ -
Re: OCR AS Salters Chemistry F332 - Wednesday 23rd May 2012 1:30pm
you know for the bonding question where it asked what form of intermolecular bonding is present in this molecule:
is it acceptable to write permenant dipole- permanent dipole attraction as opposed to hydrogen bonding because both are present and the question doesnt specifify which oen to write...
AGRH i was debating in my head which one to write :*( -
I'm pretty sure it said which is the strongest intermolecular bond present, and in this case it was hydrogen bonding.(Original post by amz1209)

Re: OCR AS Salters Chemistry F332 - Wednesday 23rd May 2012 1:30pmi didnt put the numbers, i just put the words...would i still get the marks?(Original post by Mattywooda)
100% =D (though with hyphens but OCR dont care)
that was 1 mark
I'm sure they'll accept it, since in most papers they do allow just 'homolytic'.
