i thought they were all pretty ok , question 2 was a little confusing because i’ve just never seen hydrogen bonding explained that way before. feel like i lost out on a lot because of time definitely could have picked up an extra 7-8 marks with another 10 mins , i didn’t even have time to answer the last part of the last question
