leaveiton wrote:My Chemistry teacher gave out a sheet ages ago that I've been meaning to type out since. These are his predictions for the experiments.
Q1:
- Redox: Potassium Manganate Vs Ammonium Iron(II) Sulfate
- Acid/Base: % Water of Crystillation
- Water: Biological Oxygen Demand
Know how to prepare/use a solution, volumetric flask, pipette, conical flask, indicators used, colour changes, calculations.
Q2: (I know this isn't narrowed down much
)
- Ethene/Ethyne
- Ethanal
- Ethanoic Acid
- Chromatography
Know calculations for % yield
Q3:
- Determination of relative molecular mass of a volatile liquid
- Heat of Reaction NaOH vs HCl
- Rates of reaction experiments
- Redox Tests
- Suspended/Dissolved solids + Free chlorine in swimming pool water
- Anion tests/Flame test
I was under the impression that the Ethanal/Ethanoic acid experiments couldn't be asked because of the dichromate?0 -

Bio teacher gave us this.
Cool, great sheet, don;t mind if I use it eh?
BTW... It was kind of bugging me, but for the Glucose + O2 (respiration eqn at the top) don't forget that the main end product of the reaction is
ENERGY!
Tis the only reason we respire, don't ya know...
Otherwise, Kudos to your múinteoir... Great sheet!0 -

I'd say cover Kavanagh and maybe Larkin too just to be safe! Eh Characterisation of women, Theme of Revenge, Hamlet's Madness, Conflict between Hamlet and Claudius, Character of Laertes, Character of Polonius and The Importance of Soliloquys. There's a pretty big scope for q's in Hamlet but thats what I'm studying!English Paper 2
Would Plath, Rich and Heaney be enough ???
What Hamlet questions should I learn apart from deception ???

French - Misuse of drugs in sport (olympics) and global warming. Oh and my friend is convinced we're going to get a diary entry on what we'd do if the world actually ended in 2012 :P
Irish - Institute are saying coras oideachas , bas ar na boithre and drink/drugs are favorites.
English - V&V and Lit Gen. I think. Poets will be Heaney, Rich, Larkin and Plath.
Physics - Capacitance and/or resistivity for electricity. Doppler Effect. Planetary motion. Photoelectric effect with Einstein explanation. Boyles law has to come up in experiments!
Right there ye go that's the best I've got so far
Coras oideachas came up two years ago.. My grinds teacher gets it right every year. I think racism, technology because steve jobs died or maybe social problems in general0 -

I've just done an essay on the language but like, how much has it come up? Seems it only came up once
And its so not useful for any other title at all 
We've done language/sport/president/poverty. My teacher's done none of the exams/preparation she kept talking about, really starting to get a bit nervous but ah well :rolleyes:
On a related note, what are you guys studying for an triail? we've done 0 on minor characters at all, so...yeah :L0 -
so this is a bit off topic but...the course i wanna do, i only need 5 passes..handy stuff like..but im TERRIBLE at maths...im grand at everything else, but i failed ordinary maths in the mocks. If i dropped down to foundation level, would i still get my course yeah? 0

It depends on the college you're going to - check the admissions information in the prospectus. Colleges have general entry requirements as well as those for your actual course, and you have to satisfy the general ones first. Certain colleges will accept foundation maths, others won't, but it should be in the prospectus, or if you can't find it, ring their admissions office and check. 0 -

yeah think ur on the ball with them topic.. The only thing about getting an essay on problems is you'll have to twist it and prob make mistakes..Like hope on the horizon came up last year so it would of been hard enough to write a good essay.. Racism came up in the mocks too so it may appear.. u could learn problems as a backup0 -
