Not sure but it says equilibrium modeling so I assumed it meant that but maybe you'll still get marks for it :D

Hmm so is saying that barium sulfate is white, thus you can see the colour of the indicator, and the colour change the correct answer or is there a more chemistry-esque answer?

haha shit
our class used molecular model kits
made the molecules, put them in a box
then picked them up at random
if they were different, they reacted and formed a product
if they were the same, we put them back
if we picked up 2 products, they reacted and went back to the reactants

that's bull shit ...........
Why? the question specifically said modelling. And theres a specific dotpoint which says you have to *model* an equilibrium reaction. If they wanted the prac, they would've said so.

an experiment is not a model lol...you might wanna get off bos, youre dropping marks left right and centre
+1

serves you right jamesfirst, you shouldnt have acted so arrogant saying you would state rank. just cos youre first at your school doesnt make you better than the rest of the state

Yes. I used that one too - it was used in the solutions of a past hsc exam so I think it's fine to use. :)

Overall, it was a paper of moderate difficulty - the content questions were easy but some of the calculations and inference questions were harder. I think I did well - not mindblowing well but still a b6 nonetheless hopefully
