yep i think a lot of exam success comes down to luck of having a good teacher and ofc the effort you put in at home

what did people put for
a) the mass of CO2 produced from calcium carbonate (to 3 sig fig)
b) what would happen to the apparatus after a few days (iron wool oxygen question)

Oh no did the question specify 3 sig fig? I put 2.2g will I get 1/2 for that do you think?

I wrote that aswell, but I also wrote there was no stand for the cup to stand on because I wasn't sure if that was a valid point since it will help keep energy in aswell for more accurate temp measurement.

i put 2.200 rather than 2.20 because all the other numbers in the question had 3 digits after the decimal point

You're jokingggg 😭
I got 12.5 but didn't write it in and left the question, because I didn't know you could have decimals.
