Recently Asked Questions
- I am doing the Edexcel Chemistry (Nuffield) exams. I'm about to do my exams in a couple of weeks and have been trying to get to grips with organic chemistry but I'm still very confused. We've been given a flow chart diagram by our teacher but he says it has too much on it and I'm trying to work out what I can cut out of it. Concerning the amines, what reactions do we need to know - is it just the substitution of a primary amine to a primary alcohol and the reaction of a primary amine with a halogenoalkane to form a secondary amine?
- In the Chemistry (Nuffield) specification there is a 'Content' bit and a 'Skills' bit. The content just seems to be an outline of what is in the Nuffield Chemistry students book, so I am assuming that things we need to know/memorise are on the skills list. Is this correct?
- Must we learn about all the GM Government checks etc at the end of the Biochemistry booklet? Do we also need to know the experiments in the booklet for the exam?
