AQA GCSE Chemistry - C2 & C3 (14th May 2015)

No pressure. Kidding haha thanks I know it must be a lot of effort!! 👍👍

What the hell was the C2 six marker, because i wrote about how endothermic the reaction is, but apparently it was about rate of reaction

Haha I know, I recognised the metal bonding one! I was hoping for diamond vs graphite though

It does stick in your mind. I don't like my username either dw. If anyone knows me in real life it is wayyyy too recognisable.

Personally I love art! Glad I got my gcse exam done a few weeks before the rest. It didn't feel like an exam as it was so chill

Yeh; I emailed my teacher and asked and he said yes because thats why they ask for your working to be shown.
But to make things worse I used the wrong unit! So thats like 5 or 6 marks lost!

it's carbon 12, it's on the specification. The average relative atomic mass of each atom is compared to carbon 12, always, and in every element
i found the chemistry C2 paper so easy which is a relief after the atrocity that was biology. That 6 marker was amazing so easy far from a stupid transect up a tree! So glad we got nothing on electrolysis, electroplating or how to make salts This paper actually tested knowledge and the content that we learn rather than stupid 'suggest' questions.

I got insoluble aswell

I hated that 6 marker, but everything else in the C2 exam was easy, although I may have accidentally written 'atomic number' instead of 'atomic mass number'. By the way for that experiment question, would the student see solid copper deposited at the bottom of the beaker?

I could never draw well, so I don't like to discuss art.

Where was the balancing equations question in C2

It was atomic mass number? I thought it was just atomic number, that's what I put. As arranged in order of no of protons, right? What question is this? (I get confused between the two units!)

The 6 marker about zinc ? Yep I put that brown copper solid would be formed and the solution colour would change... (possibly..)

I was talking about Lithium-7 and why the mass is 7 (3 protons, 4 neutrons, protons and neutrons have one relative atomic mass each, 3+4= 7).

Yeah the chemistry unit 2 and 3 were much better and unlike biology in which they tested out our critical thinking, AQA were testing out our knowledge. I feel as i had done 1000x better in chemistry than biology

What was the full sentence?

I think its because all the atomic masses of the elements are all relative to carbon-12

Where was the balancing equations question in C2

Anyone else doing aqa spanish tomorrow
