January Edexcel Chemistry IAL Unit 1 2016 (Thread)

Yes, I got the ICl3 right, i posted above.

For the ionic equation, i wrote this:

H₂SO₄ + 6H⁺ + 6e^- --> 4H₂O + S

---

Prep of slaked lime (Ca(OH2) from CaCO3 (Two stages)

I wrote, CaCO3 --> CaO + CO2 and CaO + H2O --> Ca(OH)2 and high temp condition etc.

I studied for it last year, im just re sitting it as i got a B, and im trying to get a higher grade. I studied from the Unit 3 & & edexcel book. But I did notes on them, if you want them, they're hand written though :/ Any questions i can help you wit, as i have a bit of experience on it

Oh thanks a lot. I've got my own notes too. I guess I'll just go through the study guide and if i come across anything difficult I'll ask you for help c:

damn, that seems right to me. So bad, that mine had nothing to do with that lol. I think you got it right

Yeah, and just do past papers, thats where you learn more. Im sure itll go better tan this one, or at least a bloody damn hope so hahaha

What do you guys think the grade boundary for A will be for the Unit 2 Chem Exam?

I would say an A is 55 or 56, it was a tough paper

I think it should be somewhere between 55-60 for an A
What do you say?

Well I don't think it will go as low as 55.

Might be around 58-60.

Are you giving unit 3 chem?

Yes.

Do we need to know the born haber cycles?

No, not for unit 3.

Oh, alright.
What do you think is the best way to revise this unit? I'm really struggling with this one

Do all the past papers, you should be good.

Read through and remember ALL the tests for different functional groups. I have some notes on them. They are really easy and broken down. Do you want them? I tried attaching it here but its too large.

Do you mind sending me the notes you've made for unit 3? I'm also struggling with it and it's tomorrow.
