Chapter 6, 8 & 10 Test

Please use the markscheme below to correct your answers to the test.

General feedback:

  • There is significant correlation between doing more of the set tasks before the test and doing better in the test. However this only applied if the work had also been corrected before the test. This applied to being more likely to achieve target grades and also achieving higher grades. 
  • Evidence of good learning of the content from many of you, well done
  • The free moving charged particles in the different types of material were not well known, revise structure and bonding if you scored less than 3/3
  • Half equations were a challenge for everyone, please look at the markscheme
  • Reversible reactions and catalysts - the explanations most people gave showed some understanding but they lacked the precision needed for credit. Look carefully at the markscheme and you will need to learn the phrases you need to use to score marks.
  • Evidence of learning the various tests from most, some scored low marks here - I suggest you look at how you approached revising that content.
