Re: Chemistry Paper 6 Revision

T.S said:
Thanks alot, Your the best !!!! Is there anything else we should know because I also have another exam on the same day with Edexcel (Human Biology) and I don't want to waste time.

You're welcome , Just pray for me that I understand what I am copying o.o..... so far I can't get the organic chromatography stuff

Ehm ehm...

Here is a summary for what you must Press on , ordered according to Exam questions :

  1. Experimental Apparatus
  • Experiments and practical work concerning volume ,rate of reaction and temperature ( Electrolysis is included )
  • Identifying with tests , like this topic
  • Types of reactions ( Displacement , redox , exothermic , substitution w/e )
  • Rate of reaction and what affects it ( Temperature , Concentration and surface area [ usually Powder and ribbon ] )
  • Acidity and Alkalinity of a substance ( Check paper 6. October / November 2009 , Question No.5 )
  • Organic stuff and chromatography like the one I was asking 'user' about.

(a)Put the leaf in the mortar and crush it using the pestle. Put the crushed leaf in a suitable solvent to dissolve in the coloured pigments
(b)Place a concentrated spot of liquid extract at the centre of baseline drawn 1-2 cm above the end of filter paper. Dip the paper in the solvent with the level of solvent below the baseline. The solvent rises up the paper producing the spots. The spots indicate the number of coloured pigments.
this is what i wrote hope this helps

Hmm , so the Mortar and the Pestle to crush the leaf , the solvent is to dissolve the coloured pigments in order to be able to do chromotography ? as in filling the first question?

Psst , the Topic has been updated , please check ^.^
Yeah right dissolving is done to do chromatography


Perfect~! >:) If I finish maths now , I will have some time to play MMORPGs...

Re: Chemistry Paper 6 Revision

i think u should do that soon at least just know what topics need to be done cracking and fermentation both come under organic chemistry!!and according to my teacher they might ask some questions on these topics in paper 6 like conditions..

however , you can be able to score A* without answering a single past paper , Just by looking at all the 18 papers , and taking whats common between them , and that is the most probable to come in the Exam .. that is what I did for English , and Physics , in Physics I solved only 2 or 3 papers to be honest... However for the exam , it is not important how many papers you answer , it is how much you know inside the limits of the Exam , and what is more important How much knowledge do you own . But for maths , You need to answer as much Question Papers as possible , if it possible to EAT the book , the past papers , the exam and the invigilator , eat them!
