After watching that I'm more worried :s-smilie:

They said that they knew if someone had finished their answer if it went off the screen, but mine don't, and I usually finish a sentence before starting a new one on the additional paper, which makes me think they don't know I've written more and won't mark the additional paper :eek:
Is equilibrium the same as dynamic equilibrium I don't understand does the harber process reach eaquilibrium but not dynamic equilibrium ??

But those papers are hand marked so the marker will have the additional paper so will have to mark it? Anyway I'm sure it will be fine

So the exam paper AND the additional booklet are marked together?

STOP WORRYING. THEY READ THE WHOLE ANSWER AND THEN MARK IT :tongue: There was an examiner report about it when doing OCR technology that applied to the whole exam system.

I think that I'll take the risk and not revise the sections on Ethanol/Ethane/Ethene because there's so much nonsense.

Are you doing further maths

That's my understanding, yes! :smile:

Okay, sorry for being a nuisance xD I was just scared my work wouldn't count is all :awesome:
Do we need to know about the bromine water test between alkanes and alkenes

Yup, are you?


Yh how did you find Mondays paper

Don't worry - I'd be the same in your position :smile:

Normally on past papers I don't really drop that many marks, but on this I dropped 15 despite thinking that it was alright - I hated the last question and I messed up the cyclic quad that I thought was easy! :rolleyes: What about you, what are you aiming for?

Equilibrium is more general though, as in it justrefers to balance and in chemical reactions this balance is constantly changing(chemiclas swithing between reactant and product), the habor process is reversible but never reaches equilibrium(reversible reactions are able to meet dynamic equilibrium but don't always) and i thinl you'd get a lower yeild(like half) if it reached dynamic equilibrium

The trigonometric one seemed difficult, but when in doubt - factorise! It was alright after that stage, but still tricky overall. I like the non-calc better than calculator, but I'm gonna have to try and get 95/105 on this one which'll be very very difficult.

Does anyone find some of this C7 really irrelevant? Such as the stages to introduce a new chemical process, how ethanol is produced and these quantitative analysis pages?

I only need like 60 or 70 for my A* good luck

Yeah a lot of it follows from core and additional chemistry they always have pointless pages

Does anyone know what grade 44/60 would be on the specimen paper?

Specimen paper was really difficult and harder than the June 2013, since there's no grade boundaries I'd definitely say an A*.
