CHEM5 papers

If you scroll down this post a bit you'll find some papers and mark schemes for your revision, although hopefully you'll have had many of the answers fully explained in class by now. Just remember that there are some synoptic elements to CHEM5, meaning that the board can ask you anything from earlier modules which have a link to the new content studied in module 5.

As far as I can see, the most likely subject areas to crop up again are:

Thermodynamics
· Calorimetry (from CHEM2)
· Equilibria and Le Chatelier (CHEM2)

Redox Equilibria and cells
· Redox behaviour of halogens (CHEM2)

Periodicity
· Physical trends in period 3, melting point, 1st ionization energy etc. (CHEM1)
· Solubility trends of sulphates/hydroxides (CHEM1)
· Extraction of aluminium (CHEM2)

Transition Metals
· Electron configuration (CHEM1)
· Shapes of molecules (CHEM1)
· Extraction of metals, iron, aluminium, titanium (CHEM2)

At any point they could very easily throw in a pV=nRT calculation as well, so make sure you know the standard units.

Older CHM5 papers can be found further down. Just be careful to ignore any organic chemistry or other module 4 based questions on the old syllabus papers. However, if you are resitting the CHEM4 paper then there will be some useful stuff on here for you to try on equilibria and acid calculations, as well as the essential organic stuff.

If you need any more old CHM5 papers then send me a quick email and I'll let see what I can do.
