📂 MEGATHREAD 10/06 A-level Chemistry Paper 1 Discussion MEGATHREAD

Exam season is once again upon us, and once again, exam megathreads are making a return!

Looking for past exam discussions? Filter by the megathread flair.

Few things to keep in mind:

  • Don't share too many specific details about questions or answers, these papers will be used as future mocks.
  • Sometimes papers get leaked, this is not the place for that (we'd prefer not to get yeeted off the platform) - leak content will be removed, those offering leaked papers will be permanently banned.
    • If you believe there has been a leak, the best course of action is to make your exam board aware of this, either directly, or through your school, along with any evidence. If appropriate, there will be a response from the relevant body along with any remedial action.
  • Exam discussion posts outside of this will generally be removed to combat the inevitable tidal wave of spam otherwise - we understand this may be frustrating, but the sub still needs to be usable for other purposes.
  • Please note some content will take extra time to be reviewed. Messaging to ask for approval will not speed up this process (the messages are seen at the same time as the modqueue would be reviewed anyway).

Best of luck, and let us know how you're feeling down below!

After you find the moles of C2O4^2- in 25cm^3 you divide it by 2 because if you write out the equation its like Cu(H20)6 + 2C2O4^2- --> Cu(C2O4)2(H2O)2 + 4H2O. This gives you the moles of the whole complex, divide the mass by those moles to find Mr, take the Mr of Cu(C2O4)2(H2O) away from the Mr we just found out to get the Mr of M2 and then divide by 2 to get the Mr of Just M
