chemistry AQA paper 1

anyone wanna guess what could come up in chem paper 1
I'm predicting LOTS of maths!
And:
Potentially not the history of atom/periodic table as that has come up SO much

- Standard atomic structure etc questions
- Groups of the periodic table and their reactions eg why does group 7 get less reactive going down the group
- Bonding will always come up
- Properties of giant ionic/covalent structures
- Properties of metals and alloys
- RAM of isotopes
- Allotropes of carbon
- Nanoparticles inc sizes
- lots of quantitative chemistry - especially triple only such as percentage yield, atom economy, gas volumes, and titration calculations 90% likely
- Reactions of metals and acids
- pH and neutralisation
- soluble salts
- electrolysis and half-equations
- bond energies, but more likely drawing/interpreting a reaction profile diagram
- batteries cells, and hydrogen fuel cells - potential 6 marker on evaluating hydrogen fuel cells and rechargeable batteries.

i have a feeling alot on electrolysis and reduction redox is gonna come up cos it didnt come up much...i don't know about maths though cos it came up alot in the specimens so it might not now

Im preparing for that 6 marker aswell. Have a feeling it will come up.
