    yes you should get the mark Mass Spectroscopy was also correct :P
    Technically, that is mass spectrometry... be careful!

    Well first of all you t.w.a.t this mark scheme isn't totally right. It's based on our answers and it's not from the AQA and they may accpet mispelt words as they realise you know what you were talking about so stop acting like a tosser

    1a) Magnesium ions from the dissolved magnesium sulfate make the water hard (1). When sodium carbonate is added the magnesium ions from magnesium carbonate (1) which is a solid precipitate taking the magnesium ions out of the solution (1).
    b) Result is anomalous/ doesn’t fit general pattern (1)
    c) Water would boil off and there would no longer be 100g (1)
    ii) 68 degrees C (1)
    c) Two straight lines (1) which join at a peak (1) (as opposed to curve)
    2 a) They are metals (1), react strongly with water (1)
    b) Two elements in same box (1), some elements in same group had different properties (1), pattern falls apart after 18 elements (1) etc.
    c) Left gaps (1) so undiscovered elements could be put into the table when they are discovered (1)
    3 a) Transition metals unreactive compared to other metals (1) hard (1) shiny (1) (Max 2)
    b) All have similar/same number of outer shell electrons (1) but 3rd shell only partly filled (1)
    4 a) Hydrogen ion (1)
    b) pH of weak acid higher (1) as less hydrogen ions in same concentration (which cause acidity in solution) (1)
    c) i) Strong alkali, weak acid (1)
    c) ii) 0.61 mol/dm3 (3)
    ii) 12g (2)
    5 a) i) Bubble gas through limewater (1) and limewater should go cloudy (1)
    ii) Wrong (1), as white precipitate did not dissolve again when excess sodium hydroxide added (1)
    iii) Right (1), as white precipitate formed after silver nitrate added (1)
    b) i) Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (1), Mass spectrometry (1) (Max 1)
    ii) Measure smaller changes in the amount of lead (1)
    6. Chlorine atoms smaller (1), so higher force of attraction between outer shell electrons and nucleus (1), so electrons gained more easily when they react (1)
    7 a) -810 kJ/mol (3)
    b) More energy released by bond making (1) than used for bond breaking (1)
    c) Spark provides activation energy (1)
    5a) iii) is no because in test 1 chloride ions where added in the form of aqueous hydrogen chloride (Hydrochloric acid)

    It frustrates me. We all just done a important exam and are worried about what we put and some tosser thinks he's got the right to say what he wants- **** off

    yeah i suppose hopefully they give it as they have given it for past papers also mate, what did you get for the chlorine one whether student was incorrect or correct? i put he was correct, but then changed it to incorrect right at the last second, cos the silver nitrate reacted with the chloride ions in the Hydrochoric acid, and not in the eggshell?

    There is no evidence that chloride ions weren't in the shell in the first place.

    James_01, pretty much your a tosser. If you were so sophisticated, you wouldn't be talking to us on the student room would you. You'd be consuming yorkshire tea and nice cake with your fellow stuck up wan.kers for friends so you're contadicting yourself here, tw.at

    There is no evidence that chloride ions weren't in the shell in the first place.
    There is also no evidence that there were either, so the student can't conclude that there are chloride ions in the egg
