Stalk your books, if you have the AQA student books they have a lot of the equations in, you literally need to learn them, or at least learn a general for each kind of reaction, for exactly complete combustion the products are water and co2, that's kind of what you need to go for the reactions, looking through mark schemes is what i do, they seem to ask the same questions ever year just changing one of the elements, hope this helps xx

Thanks for the reply! thing is that lots of the equations are ones that we have never seen of a random equation which they use in the exam and writing them confuses me!
