I just said 10 + 1 so silver had 11grams? why was it worth 4 marks?
Had to do balanced ionic equation, find molar ratio between Zn and Ag, determine which was oxidised and which was reduced, find moles of Zn lost and then use molar ratio to find moles of silver gained, then convert to mass of Silver

Didn't think of that lol. Exam pressure and all that - havent seen questions where the mass is lost in that form

paper was actually quite average. I imagined it being really hard. Anyone know where to find the answers for it? Or still not up yet?

I might do the answers to the calculation questions tonight if I get time, not bothered with the theory questions.

Are there any calculation questions anyone particularly wants the worked solutions to?
