How To Use This Book


Before you get cracking on some exam practice, here's some handy information and some tips to help you in the exams.

Edexcel International GCSE Exam Stuff


1) For the Edexcel International GCSE in Chemistry, you'll
Paper Time No. of marks
sit two exam papers at the end ofyour course —_>
2) Some material in the specification will only be
tested in Paper 2. The questions that cover Paper 2
material in this book are marked with a Paper 2 box.

You Need to Understand the Command Words


Command words are the words in a question that tell you what to do.
If you don't know what they mean, you might not be able to answer the questions properly.

This means you need to recall facts or write about what something is like.

You have to give reasons for something or say why or how something happens.

This means the same thing as ‘Name...’ or ‘Give...


You usually just have to give a short definition or an example of something.
You need to use your knowledge to work out the answer. It'll often be something you
haven't been taught, but you should be able to use what you know to figure it out.
This means you'll have to use numbers from the question to work something out.
You'll probably have to get your calculator out.

Seven Golden Rules for your Exam


1) Always, always, always make sure you read the question properly.
For example, if the question asks you to give your answer in cm’, don't give it in dm’.

2) Look at the number of marks a question is worth.


The number of marks gives you a pretty good clue of how much to write. So if a question is worth four marks,
make sure you write four decent points. And there's no point writing an essay for a question that's only worth
one mark — it's just a waste of
your time.

3) Write your answers as clearly as you can.


If the examiner can't read your answer you won't get any marks, even if it's right.

4) Use specialist vocabulary.


You know the words | mean — the sciencey ones, like enthalpy change and polymerisation. Examiners love them.

5) Show each step in your calculations.


You're less likely to make a mistake if you write things out in steps. And even if your final answer's wrong,
you'll probably pick up some marks if the examiner can see that your method is right. You also need to |
make sure you're working in the right units — check before you put any numbers in your calculator. |
RA ke EE TAT A tones ee he VEZ, |
6) Pay attention to the time. = Obeying these Golden Rules will help you get
Don't spend ages staring at the question paper. If you're totally, as many marks as you can in the exams —
but they're no use if you haven't learnt the stuff
hopelessly stuck on a question, just leave it and move on to the next one. in the first place. So make sure you revise well
You can always go back to it at the end if you've got enough time. and do as many practice questions as you can.

Exam day can give anyone a case of the jitters. So make sure you've got everything you need for the exam

Exam Practice Tip


Around 20% of the marks in the exam could come from questions testing your knowledge of experimental
skills, so make sure you're comfortable with what terms like ‘reliability’ mean in the context of chemistry.
You might also be asked do some calculations with experimental data, or how an experiment could be improved.

You won't be expected to memorise the periodic table for the exam — youll always be given a copy of it.
Its dead handy. Amongst other things, you can use it to work out the number of electrons in an atom.
Remember, the number of electrons in an atom’s outer shell is the same as its group number.

It's really important to get your head around the method for calculating masses in reactions. It's just a case
of finding the relative molecular masses for the bits that you want, and then doing a spot of dividing and
multiplying. And don't forget to double check your working to make sure your answer is right. 23

Water of Crystallisation ei
1 Na,CO,.xH,0O is a hydrated salt, which means that water molecules are
present in the lattice structure. This water is called water of crystallisation. e

By heating a sample of a hydrated salt you can gradually remove the water of crystallisation to
form an anhydrous salt. This can be done by placing a sample of the hydrated salt into a crucible
and gently heating it using a Bunsen burner.

A student used this method to remove the water of crystallisation from Na,CO,.xH,O to produce
the anhydrous salt Na,CO,. The student put a sample of Na,CO,.xH,O into a crucible, weighed
both together, and recorded the mass. The student then heated the sample for 2 minutes, left it to
cool and recorded the mass of the sample and crucible again. The student repeated this until two
separate masses that had the same value were recorded. The student made a note of this mass.

Exam Practice Tip


Make sure you understand what the reactions of metals with acids and water tell you about the reactivity
of metals. There is no need to learn exactly the observations of all the metals with water and acids as
long as you know the differences in their reactivity and how this affects how vigorous the reactions will be.

Learning what's required for rust to form is really important for answering questions on iron.
Equally important is learning the ways that rust is prevented from forming in the real world.
It's useful to remember how the reactivity series ties in to the sacrificial method of protection too.

Exam Practice Tip


Naming esters can be tricky. Remember, the first part of the name comes from the alcohol, and the second
part comes from the carboxylic acid. So for example, if you reacted ethanol with pentanoic acid, the ester
formed would be called ethyl pentanoate. Make sure to double check your answer, it's easy to get muddled up.

The monomers of addition polymers must have a C=C bond, but in polymer form this double bond becomes a
single bond. Carbon always has four bonds, so if you're drawing the repeat unit of a polymer, count how many
bonds the carbon atoms have. This way, you can check the bonds to make sure they're all present and correct.

4 A student wanted to find out which of five dyes could be present in a particular black ink.

(a) The student was asked to suggest a method. This is the method the student suggested:

Take a piece of filter paper. Draw a pencil line near the bottom.

Add spots of the dyes to the line at regular intervals.

Put the paper into a beaker of water with the line just touching the water.

Repeat these steps with a spot of the black ink on a second piece of filter paper,
and put this paper into a beaker of ethanol.

Place a lid on each beaker, and wait for the solvents to travel to the top of the paper.
Compare the positions of the spots created by the black ink with those created
by the dyes.

Identify two problems with this method. For each problem, suggest how you would
alter the method to carry out the experiment correctly.

You can assume the student takes sensible safety precautions.

A student is investigating how the rate of the reaction between magnesium
strips and hydrochloric acid is affected by the concentration of the acid.
The student compares different concentrations of acid by measuring how
long it takes for the reaction to produce 20 cm* of hydrogen gas.

The results of the experiment are shown below.

Concentration of acid (mol/dm*)

Plot the results on the axes below and draw a curve of best fit.

The student carries out the experiment again using 0.6 mol/dm* hydrochloric acid.
This time, magnesium powder is used rather than strips of metal.

The student says “it will take longer than 18 seconds for 20 cm? of hydrogen gas to form’.

Is the student’s prediction correct? Explain your answer.

So, 0.400 moles of aluminium oxide will produce
(0.400 = 2) x 4=0.800 moles of aluminium.
A(Al) = 27, so mass of Al = 0.800 x 27 = 21.6 g
[4 marks for correct answer, otherwise I mark for
correctly calculating M, of Al,O;, 1 mark for correctly
calculating the number of moles of Al,O; and I mark
for working out how many moles of Al are made.]
9 a) i) The solid stops dissolving and remains at
the bottom of the flask /7 mark].
ii)— zinc chloride /7 mark] and water /7 mark].
b) E.g. do a titration to find out how much acid and
alkali are needed for neutralisation /7 mark]. Add
these volumes of acid and alkali together without
indicator /1 mark]. Heat the solution to evaporate the
water, leaving a dry sample of the salt /7 mark].
c) B [1 mark] and E [1 mark]
For this reaction you need to pick two soluble salts — one that contains
Ba** and one that contains SO/~

Answers
Do both exam papers.
Use the answers and mark scheme to mark each exam paper.

Use the tables below to record your marks.

Add together your marks for the two papers to give a total mark out of 180.

Total Mark = Paper 1 Total + Paper 2 Total

Total Mark = [_|/180

Look up your total mark in this table to see what grade you got.
