    they probably are, i write my mock exams a year in advance, to allow time for proof reading, changes etc, so the real ones are probably done by now.

    anyway to the OP

    Question 1 is always a titration, Q2 is always Organic Chemistry and Q3 is any of the remaining experiments.


    Get out your exam papers. Make a list of all the titrations from 02 - 07, compare it to the list in the inside cover of Chemistry Live and see what Titration hasn't come up recently, those ones are the most likely. Whatever was on last year won't be on this year. Do the same for O.Chem.

    There are a list of 30 experiments. No 21-28 are organic from what I remember. The Titrations are the ones from the Acid-Base, Oxidation-Reduction and Water chapters.

    The remainder are the ones that can come up in Q3.



    It's not rocket science. In the second section of the paper, Q5 is always on theory of the periodic table, bonding etc approx ch2-7 from the book.

    Q 6 and 7 are normally organic chemistry

    Q11c is the option from the workbook/case study

    And there is always a question on chemical equilibrium thrown in somewhere.
