- [ ] I’m homeschooled so I have no teachers could someone help me understand this, my question is: If you get given a question for example like: sodium sulphate reacts with potassium hydroxide what will be produced? is that expected understanding and knowledge for gcse and or a level to then figure out what the products would be as if I get asked how one reactant reacts with some other chemical element would I be expected to know and figure out what that product from the reaction would be and would I have to learn and understand the different chemical reactions as in displacement reactions and so on, so my role is to essentially become like a detective and see what the contents of the reactions reactants are to then figure out what the products would be
