Edexcel Chemistry Unit 1 15th May

The website isn't working for me! I neeeeed the papers and mark schemes to go through them all! D: Help anyone?

http://www.edexcel.com/i-am-a/student/Pages/pastpapers.aspx

Click GCE from 2008 > Chemistry > Examination series > choose a date

Alternatively, type it into Google.

Everything up until 2010/11 is on the site I posted (the Edexcel Time Machine)

And for 2011/2012/Spec. papers, just Google around... they're everywhere.

Thank you so much!

I'm absolutely screwed for this exam, I can't even do the multiple choice questions

It just means CH3CH2Cl2, CH3CHCl3, etc.

it means more than one halogen group is attatched to that ethane molecule.

for example CH3CH(Cl)(Br)

Thanks!
I thought it was something more complicated!!
Good luck for the exam!!

Any predicitions what is likely to come up?

any must knows? etc

Ofcourse we should all know that they will put a question probably dedicated for a few calculations (moles..)

Can anyone please upload the jan 12 Examiner report. The only document I need since the edexcel site wasn't working at school

Got a question for you guys to try:

Which element, from hydrogen to Magnesium has the largest atomic radius and explain your reason for your answer.

haha proper examination style and everything

magnesium as it has the most electrons so surely the most electrons in shells meaning it is the largest due to repulsion of the electrons in the shells?


or am i completely wrong.

Sodium? It and magnesium have the most electron shells so they have larger atomic radii, and sodium has a smaller radius than magnesium because magnesium has a greater nuclear charge in its nucleus, which holds the electrons a little closer to the centre (thereby decreasing its radius in comparison to sodium).
