    Chem.p34 answer discussion...

    Moderator Edit : No Paper Content Within 24 Hours of the Paper NO Paper discussion BEFORE 24hrs!! Your readings should be similar to your supervisor's. Depends on how many questions in the calculations you did, if you didn't do any, but have done the rest well, you shouldn't drop below B.

    Who so ever gave away a wrong guess(chemisrty P34) should think of what will Allah do to them...!!!

    Well if you think about it, the guesses weren't that bad. Oxalic acid, EDTA, Nitrate/nitrite ions; all were perfect guesses :P Anyway, in all seriousness, hope you didn't do bad. Good luck
