AQA CHEM5 A2 Chemistry-June 17th 2014

Hi all,

There seems to be demand for this thread, so here it is :biggrin:
I will add things to this op when I find the time. (A reminder would be nice if I forget :biggrin: )


Have fun learning! :biggrin:

Unit 5 paper- bare in mind this will be your mock so might be best advised that you don't look at this until after you have done your mock. ( This has been put up as some candidates are undergoing self study type schemes and thereby would not have access to the paper):

How is everyone finding unit 5 compared to unit 4?

We haven't done much yet, but its not too bad. In comparison to unit 4 though, it does seem a bit trickier.

It looks much better than unit 4. There's none of the pants organics in it :grin:

It's not as interesting as unit 4. There is more understanding involved in unit 4 but more mindless mesmerisation in unit 5 and there are no mechanism, which I absolutely love. Overall, unit 4 is more enjoyable although I do like all the pretty colours of the transition metals. :biggrin:

I personally don't like the physical stuff. Inorganic is decent though. Love that you don't like organic but you're a chemistry applicant :wink:

Well physical is proper chemistry. Organics isn't :biggrin:

I'm going to abandon organics as soon as I get the chance!

Noooo! You gotta rekindle your love for organic! I'm sure once you keep practicing the mechanisms and such you will reignite your love for organics. :smile:

:eek: can't believe what I'm reading. I bet you'll change your mind when you start uni

Defo working on it. Once I'm able to get full marks in the organic questions, I'm sure I'll love it :biggrin:

I'm gonna keep my ion this thread... :teehee:

Why do you like organics?

Its really fun!! And there's such a range involved with it, from naming compounds to making them, and its all based around one otherwise insignificant element. And the curly arrows of course :sexface:

Naming compounds; irrelevant as IUPAC names aren't adopted most of the time.
Making: You make more with inorganic.
Curly Arrows are bent.

Chem 5 stopped me getting into uni. So you can probably figure out which one i prefer.
