Questions people ask
Do you get a data sheet in A-level Chemistry exams?
Yes. Every board gives a clean copy in each paper: AQA calls it a data booklet, OCR a data sheet, Edexcel a data booklet.
Is the Arrhenius equation on the data sheet?
On OCR A and OCR B, yes. AQA and Edexcel do not print it, so learn k = Ae^(−Ea/RT) and its log form.
Are equations like pV = nRT and pH = −log[H⁺] given?
No board prints them. OCR and Edexcel give the gas constant and Kw; AQA gives no constants in the booklet.
Which relative atomic masses should I use?
The ones printed in your board's Periodic Table, unless the question gives different values.
