Do u all actually know how marks are given for chemistry paper 2 essay, esp the one on describing an exp. We are only supposed to write procedure observations and inference right? Hope to clear my doubts about it.

QUOTE(blacktubi @ Mar 30 2013, 06:54 PM) You are supposed to plan the whole experiment until conclusion Sometimes it doesn't include "your report should include bla bla" in the question and it just says 10 marks. So what are we supposed to write other than procedure, observations and inference? How are the marks given out for these kind of questions?example is spm 2011 question 10b, looking at the answers, I am not sure how 10 marks are given.Anyway, there should be a guide at the question like "your report should include ......"

QUOTE(maximR @ Mar 30 2013, 08:56 PM) The marks aren't fixed . Sometimes it's eight , sometimes ten , sometimes twelve . You don't need hypothesis or variables or anything like that , planning of experiment is the one in paper three . That is quite true. The ans are lousy. But I would like to know how to get 10 marks for the 2011 essay question, 10b. What is needed to be written? This is because for questions that ask us to explain about formation of covalent or ionic bonds, not that many marks are given. Usually 6 onlyIn paper two , you'll need to describe an experiment using passive voice . You need : 1 . Apparatus and Materials ( sometimes they want chemicals only but I always give apparatus just to be safe ) . 2 . Procedure ( this carries most marks , sometimes up to eight marks ( 3 . Observation / Chemical equation / Table / Graph ( depending on the question , normally Salts questions require chemical equations , and electrolysis experiments require observations at the anode or cathode ) . That's all . If you can fulfil these criteria , you don't need to worry about the marks . SPM Chemistry past year book has HORRIBLE answers . Look at trial paper mark schemes instead .

QUOTE(darrenliew96 @ Mar 30 2013, 11:23 PM) I pump up most of my form 4 stuff this holiday. Read those necessary chapters, which you may not familiar with. Such as che: salt, electrolysis phy: motion,light bio: basically everything. If got time, then study those others chapter. PS: I still got add math and sej need to study. Sej is my weakest subject Me too! Im not good in sj. Really hate the wall of text in the f4 sj textbook. Really boring. Am and maths r my best subs n I really like them. |

QUOTE(Critical_Fallacy @ May 4 2013, 11:02 PM) The same way you showed mooney. Thanks for the reply. However, may I know how you get to know that sin (180+theta)=-sintheta and also the same thing for cos, as the angle is obtuse. How does it compare with the reference angle?But DO NOT forget that the angle in Pythagorean trigonometric identity can be positive or negative (±√). Because θ in this case is an obtuse angle, so you need to apply the minus sign (−√). sin² θ + cos² θ = 1 ![]() |

QUOTE(Critical_Fallacy @ May 4 2013, 11:34 PM) The reference angle that you refer is usually an acute angle or ∠0° < α < ∠90°. Probably you are not familiar when the angle is an obtuse angle, ∠90° < θ < ∠180°. Nevertheless, you can express sin (180° + θ) in terms of the acute angle α, and then convert it to back to obtuse angle θ. Thanks I understand it now!![]() |

QUOTE(blacktubi @ May 11 2013, 02:38 PM) If you are driving and you see there is a toll in front and you know you will be slowed down will you still take that route? Yeah I know that. But I dont know why brightness when s1s2 is closed is the same as when only s2 is closed. How does current flow when s1s2 are closed?Electric always use the less resistance route. |

QUOTE(blacktubi @ May 11 2013, 03:11 PM) Hmmm, the difference between S1S2 and S2 only is there is a resistor added when only S2 is closed Yes im not sure about that too. Asked my teacher this before so im quite sure the ans is d. Forgotten her explanation already though.Just realize this point, need someone else to help out |

Maximr, do u know how to explain my question above? Why is the brightness same when both s1s2 are closed and also when s2 only is closed.
