No ,
If any of you are doing C1 and done B1 i would recommend to revise maths and additional science - and do not even look at the spec of C1

So scared! Does anyone know the electrode thing about negative attracting to positive? I always get confused with that and I've read over my revision guide and still don't understand it.

Thanks a lot :smile:

Positive ions go to to the negative electrode and negative ions to the positive electrode, look at your data sheet to see if the ions are positive or negative

It's bs, the papers are not sent to the examination room till the morning of the exam, and they are kept and stored in an Aqa warehouse.
