Relatively easy paper, how'd everyone else find it. I got stumped by the 3rd multiple choice lol.
which one was question 3?

I think I went pretty, well. Not too hard, not too easy :)

I found it pretty good. The long response for shipwrecks was hard though. But overall I feel good

Found the exam pretty easy, except for the sodium iodide one.

IT was about the greatest change in pH when diluted, HCl was added, NaoH was added and sodium carbonate was added

Well HCl and NaOH would neutralise each other at the same conc and added Na2CO3 would make it basic, because CO3-2 is the conjugate base of HCO3-1 which is a weak acid, it is strongly basic.
And Na is the conjugate acid of NaOH which is strongly basic, so Na is a weak acid.

Hope that helps :/

I remember that question,
It said something about which one would cause the greatest pH change if one of the following was added to HCl
I was tossing between diluting it with water and adding NaOH ...
