What is Filtration and describe the method
Answer: - Sperating a insoluble solid from a liquid - Method - pour solution through a funnel with filtration paper . the liquid will run down the funnel into the beaker whilst the remains (solids) will be left in the funnel stopped by the filtration paper

1.
Describe the arrangement/movemt of particles in a solid?
Answer: - Extremely hard to compress this is because the particles in a solid are packed together in a regular pattern with almost no space between particles - They have a fixed shape and cannot flow from place to place this is because in a solid the particles can only vibrate on the spot and cannot move.
2.
Describe the arrangement/movemt of particles in a liquid?
Answer: - Extremely hard to compress this is because the particles are still close together with not many spaces between them - They can flow from place to place unlike solids. this is because the particles in a liquid can move
3.
Describe the arrangement/movemt of particles in a gas?
Answer: - Extremely easy to compress that is because the particles in a gases are widely spread - Gases spreadout and fill the space of the container this is because the particles in a gas move quickly and randomly
4.
How can we change a solid to a liquid?
Answer: process of melting, in order for this to happen we need to put energy, we use this energy to break the forces of attraction between the particles in a solid allowing the particles to freely move
5.
What is ionic bonding?
Answer: Ionic bonding is bonds that have electrostatic attraction. When oppositely charged ions form an ionic bond you get an ionic compound. This happens between a metal and non metal

1.
Principle of conservation of mass
Answer: during a chemical reaction, matter is not created or destroyed, the atoms are simply rearranged
2.
To calculate the % of an element in a compound we use ...
Answer: ((No of atoms of the element x mass of element)/Mr )x 100
3.
a mole is ...
Answer: An amount of a substance that contains exactly 6.02 X 10^23 particles
4.
Avagadro\'s number
Answer: 6.02 x 10^23, the number of atoms or molecules in 1 mol
5.
Avagadro\"s number is defined by ...
Answer: The mass of Avagadro\'s number of atoms or molecules is equal to the relative atomic mass / relative formula mass in grams

1.
Which method must be used to extract metals more reactive than carbon from their ores (metal oxides)?
Answer: Electrolysis
2.
What type of reaction is occuring when electrons are transferred?
Answer: REDOX (reduction and oxidation) reaction. This is where one chemical is oxidised and another is reduced at the same time.
3.
When a particle is reduced, what two things might have happened to it?
Answer: It could have gained electrons or lost oxygen.
4.
When a particle is oxidised, what two things might have happened to it?
Answer: It could have lost electrons or gained oxygen.
5.
In a redox reaction, what mnemonic can be used to remember what happens?
Answer: OILRIG - oxidation is loss, reduction is gain (of electrons).

Some examples from this set of practice questions
1.
What is the pH scale?
Answer: A scale that measures how acid/alkaline a solution is. A neutral substance has a pH of 7 (e.g. pure water). The lower the number the more acidic the solution. The higher the number the more alkaline the solution.
2.
In what two ways can we measure the pH of a solution?
Answer: 1) Use an indicator - a dye that changes colours at certain pHs. 2) Use a pH probe/ meter, which gives a digital pH and is more accurate than an indicator.
3.
What are wide range indicators?
Answer: Mixtures of dyes that gradually change colour e.g. universal indicator.
4.
What type of reactions occurs between acids and bases (or alkalis?)
Answer: Neutralisation reaction. Acid + Base --> Salt + water e.g. Hydrochloric acid + Copper oxide -> Copper Chloride + water
5.
What is the ionic equation for a neutralisation reaction?
Answer: H+(aq) + OH-(aq) -> H2O(l)

1.
What is an exothermic reaction?
Answer: A reaction that causes a rise in temperature to surroundings- it releases energy
2.
What is an endothermic reaction?
Answer: A reaction that causes a decrease in temperature in the surroundings-it takes in energy
3.
If a reversible reaction if exothermic in one direction what will it be in the reverse direction?
Answer: Endothermic
4.
What must happen for bonds to be broken in a chemical reaction?
Answer: Reacting particles must collide with sufficient energy
5.
What happens in a chemical reaction?
Answer: Atoms are rearranged as old bonds are broken and new bonds are formed

Poppies Power and conflict analysis“Spasms of paper red, disrupting a blockade of yellow bindings”
- Could be seen as a metaphorical bullet wound, noun ‘blockade’ acts as a barrier (protective
structure) shows how the mother aims to protect her children however the verb ‘disrupt’ implies
that this is unable to happen
- the noun ‘spasm’ imbues a sense of uncontrollable pain and agony which subverts the notion of
‘poppies’ which is conceived as a symbol of peace and hope.
- Semantic field of conflict is shown through the rough language of ‘spasms’, ‘blockade’ and ‘disrupt’
which almost dominates the line. Suggesting that the image of war has left an inescapable mark on
the mother.
- The adjective ‘red’ connotes bloodshed and gore straight away bringing graphic images of war
which contrasts with the yellow pigmented blazer – a colour that resembles and connotes hope.
Example Paragraph
- Poppies presents war in a violent way through the graphic imagery of "spams of paper red that
disrupt the blockade of yellow bindings," which may be viewed as a metaphorical bullet wound,
However, the noun "blockade" creating this image of a barrier in other words a (protective
structure), implying that the mother aims to protect her child, but the verb "disrupt" shows that this
is unable to happen. this line is reinforced by the noun "spasm”, which imbues a sense of
uncontrollable pain and agony of the soldiers being shot, subverting the notion of ‘poppies’ that
what we conceive as an enduring symbol of remembrance of the First World War. Furthermore, Jane
Weir portrays conflict in a vivid way through the use of the semantic field of the rough language
"spams", "blockade", and "disrupt" These 3 words almost dominate the whole stanza by suggesting
that the graphic images of war have left a mark of grief and pain, which is backed up by the adjective
"red", which connotes bloodshed and gore straight away, juxtaposing with the yellow pigmented
blazer, a colour that presents hope and light. Moreover, poppies present war in an unusual manner
as unlike war photographer where war is presented through a cyclical structure here its presented in
a chronological order imbuing this sense that war will always be the same as well as it also being
ambiguous since the recollections of her son's childhood are intertwined with memories of his
departing.
“Steeled the softening of my face”
- ‘steeled’ and ‘softened’ juxtapose because his mother must put on a brave face and be firm which
may contrast with her motherly, warm hearted and loving figure that she must diminish when her
son departs
- the alliteration and antithesis illustrate the linking of the two emotions, demonstrating how they
are felt simultaneously which may resemble this idea of inner turmoil.
Structure
- We see this unorganised and chaotic structure which may reflect the impact that war has left on
those at home
- There are also a couple of caesuras which create a break in the poem reflecting the emotional
breakdown of the mother as her son departs
