Final predictions for Chemistry Paper 3
6 Questions and section B (I wont be able to predict section B since its random)
QUESTIONS DON'T NEED TO BE IN THIS ORDER
1) Separating funnel practical
2) calorimetry and perhaps the practical with it as a 6 marker
3) Period 3
4) Iodine clock practical / continuous reaction practical
5) Amines
6) Maxwell boltsman curve/kinetics with Kc
NB: PREDICTIONS ONLY, REVISE EVERYTHING ELSE ASWELL

Reply 17

Guys with the shenanigans that AQA are pulling is there even a point of me doing paper 3 past papers (I haven’t done any) or should I just focus on understanding all the content since that’s what they’re testing now😥

I don’t know if it’s just my school but we got given a mini textbook for practicals with questions and answers in that I think is actually really good.
