Does anyone have a list of or can list the experiments they can ask us to describe?
after that chem exam im super bricking it for this

But in the example I posted, it is allowed


I mean sometimes things are in the allow section
Im saying it wasnt even in that it was in the real section

Already mentioned earlier somewhere, it is: SHM, specific heat capacity and Brownian motion.

SHM - know what it is and how to interpret what's going on, including energy exchanges.
SHC - know how to measure it (by heating solid/liquid) in a circuit and then calculate it.
Brownian - well it's just proof of random motion; how? Well putting jar of gas under a microscope with light shining on it so one can see the motion of gas molecules which is random proves it is hitting air particles.

Where can I find the June 2014 mark scheme?


It is on one of the earlier pages.

If the gravitational force due to a planet was the only force acting on a satellite, could you use a=v^2/r to calculate g, by doing g=v^2/r? I'm slightly confused, is g equal to a when the gravitational force is the only force acting on an object?

June 2012 Question 4bi) A to B:
I was always taught when the temperature increases, only KE increases not the PE, but in the markscheme you are not awarded a mark if you put that only KE increases.

OCR man...

You were tough wrong when T increases both KE and PE increase. When change of state occurs KE stays the same only PE increases
bricking it for this exam. need a solid high A
Right basically, is g = a? if the force due to g is the only force acting on the object
Guys are graphical calculators allowed in the exam? ill store the answers so we can all increase our anxiety levels....

(not expecting great things in this exam, its my worst one of all :colonhash: )

Objects would not be pulled through the surface of the planet though, I think is why, but I know you are not supposed to draw them into the planet.


I'm pretty sure you're actually supposed to draw them all to the centre of the planet where they meet at a point.

Ahh fair enough, i was always taught that its either one or another, but ill deffo remember that for tomorrow if it pops up!

Have a feeling therell be a thermal equilibrium question tomorrow, havent seen one for ages

No, in the mark scheme under guidance for examiners it says something along the lines of "judge by eye that all lines meet in at one point in the centre
anyone got any last tips for the exam!? Thankssss

Question 5ci on June 2013 can anyone help because if V is constant then

V=nRT/P so then I thought
T/P = T/P


but apparently it is P/T can anyone explain?


you know the equation of pV/T = constant? well you can do pV/T = pV/T. The volume stays the same so V cancels out, so youre left with P/T = P/T
Anyone have a list of all the experiments/?

No my way works as well but thank you
