Organic chemistry
Chromotography
Calculate Rf values
Effect of carbon monoxide, sulphur and particulates
Equilibrium and rates of reaction
Tangent on graph
Catalyst and Exothermic graph- draw activation energy
Displacement reaction
mass, moles, mr equation - on two questions

Sorry but this is all i remember. If i do remember anything else i'll let you know
Omds you are a life saver thank you very much.
This for( triple) right
Chemistry Paper 2 man, wtf mole calculations came up, just why, thats a paper 1 question, whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

Hey, I did Chem paper 1 for the specimen set 2 today.

I can't remember everything but it is quite mathematical so definitely revise:
Quantitative Chemistry
the first q is on the periodic table but it is just tick boxes
compare Newlands and Mendeleevs periodic table
Buckminster fullerenes - why they are a good lubricant I think
Graphite - how the stricture enables it to be soft and to conduct electricity
electrolysis - draw diagram
Abundance of Isotopes
Bond energies
covalent bonding (very brief, you just have to draw a dot and cross diagram for nitrogen)
Why is nitrogen a gas at room temp
Titrations
Nanoparticles
Fuel cells

I'm sorry but I can't remember anymore, plus my paper missed 2 pages so idk the topics for them pages. I hope it helps :smile:
