I feel so much better about myself when you make the same noises I do when seeing a question! Don't feel as stupid now! Thanks

Number 7.5 is actually the dirtiest question in existence.

Been watching quite a lot of your videos must say they are brilliant really helping me with chemistry, just one error I think I noticed having just watched this video. At 1:16:55, you use 14.6 Degrees as the temperature change, but in the first part the question states initially there is a temperature of 20 Degrees, so deltaT should be 5.4. I may be wrong, but great content thanks a lot for producing theses videos!

I know you posted this a year ago but my exam is in a couple of days and this has just really cheered me up. Not only is this helpful but it's also really entertaining! Thank you so much!

For Question 9.2 it is 50 x 4.18 x (20-14.6)

[aaronnanoo]

For Question 7.5,
The reason why SO2 cannot be oxidised into SO3 is because it cannot be done under standard conditions, in fact it requires the V2O5 catalyst that we learn about in the Contact Process.

We know that the Reaction is under standard conditions because PV=nRT is done @ standard conditions :)

Just found this channel- you could not be more of a lifesaver thank you!

[fatimal]

youre so funny. and so good at chemistry agh i wish you could help me with my exam paper

[sazanrai]

Thank you so much for all the video you made.It help a lot, I am facing my exam in may june 2017, your video has made me confident for coming examination.Sorry for my english.

[Lara-vmki]

Is it just me or are some of the questions phrased misleadingly? Like, I'd struggle to answer them but the answers on the mark scheme seem obvious??? I'm french so I'm not sure if my english skills are dodgy or if AQA is doing this on purpose:(

Currently getting in some last minute revis ion for my paper 1 final in 3 hours. This has been incredibly helpful for it. :D

I’m watching this 2 weeks into a level chem and oh no

[nondo]

Thank you for this, keep bringing out videos in this crucial time. Your videos helped me get from a low D to C at the end of AS. And now i am on target to get a B in A2 :D

[cloverow]

Hello could you sit my chemistry exam for me, thanks :)

[JazzyBee]

Thank you so much for this vid. Been waiting on it!!!

[zaramalik]

Your videos are really helpful in terms of giving us the the simplest forms for answers and to help us get maximum marks. However, for question 9.3 you labelled the equation wrong, as the question had given us the enthalpy of solution and we were working out the lattice dissociation. therefore, the working out should have been rearranged to the arrows should be pointing upwards for the enthalpy of hydration. besides this the rest of the video was helpful, especially with Q 7.5 so thanks for that :)

how do you know that S02 goes to S04 2- ?

Will you ever consider doing these run-through papers for some of the old specification, as much of it still applies? Or maybe just a video of re-occurring more difficult questions and answers in the papers.
