Question 3 - Acid Base Equilibria, Solubility Product
Short writeup:
The 2024 HCI H2 Chemistry Mid-Year Exam Paper 3 offers a valuable opportunity for students to experience the A-level H2 Chemistry Paper 3 format. While the topics tested—Organic Chemistry, Electrolysis, Acid-Base Equilibria, and Solubility Product—were not directly modeled after past A-level papers, they effectively challenged students in key areas.
The acid-base equilibria question stood out, but the rest of the questions were relatively standard. They required application and skills taught in class, rather than insights from textbooks. Although not up to the rigorous standard of a preliminary paper, these questions still demanded a thoughtful approach, making them manageable yet challenging for students.
One highlight of the paper was the inclusion of an anchor question—a contextual question designed to mimic the style of A-level exams. This question required students to dissect new information before solving, a skill critical for success in higher-level exams.
Overall, the paper wasn't meant to push students to their limits in terms of knowledge. Instead, it offered a balanced difficulty level, providing a solid practice experience for students to gauge their readiness for the A-level H2 Chemistry Paper 3. I highly recommend this paper to all JC2 students as a timed practice, especially for those needing more exposure to challenging JC2 topics.
