Are we required to know this? I've never heard of EDTA :/

No, don't worry, I do not think you need to know it for A-levels. I just answered since I studied about it in biochemistry.
Just for general knowledge, EDTA stands for Ethylene-Diamine-tetra-Aceticacid and is either used as an anticoagulent (prevents blood clots) for preserving blood specimens or as a chelating agent that binds calcium with other metals. :)

Ah I see! Thank you :)

Here you go. It would be a really crowded structure in a space fill model.

Because at first the concentration is of Ag+ is 0.1 then it is reduced to 7 x 10^-7 . As it is 1:1 mole ratio shouldn't the concentration of the product increase by 0.1 - 7 x 10^-7 ?

how about this question ?

upload_2016-3-12_10-51-16-png.59635


Value in c(i) is 7 x 10^-7 . in the mark scheme it's written concentration of product if 0.1 but shouldn't it be 0.1 - (7 x 10^-7 )?
You made ur equation of Kc.
Just substitute the values and find [NH3(aq)]
o.1 is conc of silver nitrate soln and (7 x 10^-7 ) is conc of Ag.

View attachment 59644 Can anyone plz explain me why the answer for chemistry may june 2007 v1 p1 first answer is C?
= (Mass no x Relative Abundance) / (Relative Abundance)

= {(10 * 1) + (11 * 4)} / 1 + 4

= 10.8

There is no peak for the mass no. 12, so we don't need to consider it. Note: Even if you consider it, it will be 12 * 0 = 0

I don't know if it has been uploaded here before, but I've been looking for a PDF version of this book for ages, and I found it.

It can be downloaded from here.

You need a torrent down-loader to download it, μtorrent should be fine.

I believe the CD has been uploaded here before, so you could find it by using the search bar in xtremepapers. If not, here is a torrent link for the CD.
