OCR A level chemistry phonetic spelling question

My spelling is not great,
today I did a chem paper 2, I spelt separating funnel as seperating funnel in a 4 mark question on explaining how to purify an organic liquid. TO me they sound exactly the same but as it's a scientific word I suppose im concerned about if id lose a mark for it. Considering grade boundaries for that A star are so high I could really do without dropping marks on this.
Any help would be great

High this wasn't an essay it was a just a general question for OCR A A level chemistry we don't do essays. Would this still apply. Thank you for your response

Hi i do OCR chemistry, it would still apply, as long as the word looks similar they don’t care. Unless it comes to naming compounds which is when they do actually care about spelling just because some of the names are similar. 😊

Hi amazing thank you for the reply, I thought it would be alright and would have been fuming if I lost the mark. How did you find the paper this morning?

I really liked the paper this morning, there was a few questions that were a bit off for me but overall i think i did pretty well. What about you ?

Sorry about the slow reply, I'm in the middle of practicing my biology essays. I really liked the paper other than the question asking about the difference between beta and alpha keto acids which I wasn't too sure on. Ended up rambling on for a while. Im glad you liked it.

It’s alright, tbh i need to practice my essays and revise some more bio content. That keto question threw me off as well, also the one where you had to give the structure from L,K,M i put an aldehyde and ketone but i didn’t realise until after it just said H2SO4 and no Cr2O7

Ahh that sucks, it looked like it threw a lot of people on the other exam chat. Im just happy that a levels are almost done done. Only have 3 more left and then freedom!!

yeah but oh well it’s over with now, i’ve only got 2 exams left. Good luck with your exams 😊
