[bubz :D]

What did you think of the Chemistry exam?

 

[midnight_magick]

im happy with it, it was a s0lid effort, surprisingly better than my work in bio lol. hopefully physics will be just as good or better!

 

[Slidey]

Easy. Except I forgot to study the Lead-Acid cell. Bah!

 

[Ghetto_Krayzie]

chem

i dont know i didnt like the exam liked the catholic trial. im hoping physics is alot better

 

[Rickdog]

crazy like
it was hard but then i didnt expect it to be easy

 

[100percent]

i'm disappointed there was no radio isotopes in it. but i think i did as good as i can expect, so i'm happy.

and CFC's.. i studied that so hard i had a short circuit

 

[richz]

dont want to sound arrogant, but like slidey i agree it was pretty easy, i checked it twice. Even though there were a few tricky qs, it wasnt that bad, u have to expect some tricky ones

 

[-Swifty-]

yeah no cfcs or much on ethanol or really nething...

no nuclear.. wtf

froesnics = gay but ok

and CFC's.. i studied that so hard i had a short circuit

lol, yeah.

Oh, was the Lead Acid Cell the big square one, or the little round one? Fuck I hope it was the big square one; I have absolutely no idea about the batteries, and I pretty much made it up using the std. potential reactions with Lead and MnO4, lol.

I thought the exam was OK- you can never really tell how you did because there were a few calculation-type questions (which you can never be too sure about) and a fair few extended response questions.

And the MCQs were gay.

 

[stef.]

curse you Q8

 

[Captain pi]

Stuffed it

Got Q1 wrong.
Got the Haber graph partly wrong.
Not enough detail for my Shipwrecks (b)(ii) 3 marker on steel.
My discussion of the "Advances in Chemistry impact on technologies" discussion was tenuously linked to the question.
The last question "Justify and describe the procedure of electrolysis" was poorly done.

Not happy. Although, I think the Band 5/6 cut-off will be quite low this year. God knows I'll need it.

[dangerousdave]

I thought the calculations were way harder in this year

 

[kat_in_a_hat88]

I'm happy...very good exam...but since it was easy, that means scaling won't be so fantastic.

 

[Dumsum]

That exam was a godsend. I was freaking out so bad about the Role of a Chemist and stuff like that, and there wasn't anything in there! It was all the "real" chemistry--very nice exam. Good work BoS

 

[chooette]

I thoughtb it was pretty easy... No big long complicated ones really, mostly pretty straightforward... Pretty easy to make silly mistakes though

 

[stef.]

what was with that filtering and drying the filtrate question..
is it just me or were the numbers kind of funny..
cos after they dried it..the mass increased??

 

[chooette]

I think you werent supposed to use the stuff on the filter paper, it was just susoended solids, the evaporating basin stuff was the dissolved stuff... I think...

the first reading was with the filter paper and the 2nd was with the basin
basin thing weighed more than the filter paper so yeh...
