What are my chances of learning chem 5 by january?

CHEM 5 involves synoptic questions which could be from any unit, CHEM1, CHEM2 or CHEM4, aswell as topics in CHEM5 aswell.

That's not true. See page 50 of the spec where it says "There will be no material from CHEM4 assessed in CHEM5"

I am

can they ask this?
You are provided with a mixture of iron(III) hydroxide and aluminium hydroxide.
Describe, giving essential experimental details, how you could obtain a pure sample of aluminium hydroxide from this mixture.

I can't find a current thread about the exam on the afternoon of the 22nd of janurary, so I thought I'd start one, to help with revision and questions and too just see how everyone else's revision is going, I mucked up on the ''impossible paper'' last year unsurprisingly :s-smilie:

:P … but so I need 103 ums to get my A that I really would love..

I don't have the mark scheme, sorry.

I don't expect the June paper to be that similar to the paper this month, two consecutive papers are usually quite different. :smile:
