Official June SATII Chemistry Thread

<p>well, I said that be a visible reaction. h3po4 is a very weak acid, so i dont think it would react much with the naoh. but i had no idea</p>

<p>also, h2o is a really weak acid, so OH- would be very strong as a bronsted base</p>

<p>hmm i don’t remember HCl and NaOH as an answer choice lol</p>

<p>Well I figured that H2O wouldn’t be visible since it is an aqueous solution and then I said that Na and Cl would be colourless ions in solution. I think the only other acid base titration didn’t work because it would’ve changed colour or there would’ve been some sort of precipitate.</p>

<p>the same can be said about h3po4 and naoh. na3po4 is soluble (alkali salts are soluble). h3po4 and naoh are white. and na3po4 is white (so the solutions before and after would be colorless)</p>

<p>That is true, but i’m the opposite of ownzandy, I don’t remember H3PO4 being an option.</p>

<p>I agree with ownzandy. I don’t remember HCl and NaOH being an answer choice for that particular problem.</p>

<p>My explanation to the stronger base question (I think my explanation is clear and correct)

It’s a convo between me and rm2124.</p>

<p>I think it’ll be an average curve leaning on the generous side.
Normally, the test is easier than the Barron’s…but this test didn’t have too many crazy Part 3 questions that Barron’s normally has.
However, the part 1 and 2 questions were on the difficult side because they asked really specifically. The TF/CE section was also a bit difficult. They ask a bunch of questions that you either “know it or you don’t.” </p>

<p>So in general, the math was easy for this test, but we had to know more facts. </p>

<p>I felt I did better on this test, than the Barron’s one because part 3 questions always messed me up and it was the part 1 and 2 sections where I did well. </p>

<p>Agree/Disagree?</p>

<p>So what raw score would get me around 770? Would 75 be good enough?</p>

<p>Any chance of collegeboard actually enforcing their rules?</p>

<p>any guesses on the curve?</p>

<p>@athena I felt very much the same way! The test overall was much more fact-based and had very little math in comparison to the Barron’s and other practice tests I took… Which works out well for me, because I always messed up on the stoichiometry/math questions! :smiley: Although that does mean Parts A and B were more difficult for people who didn’t know the facts all that well… I guess I was just lucky that the facts I knew were on the test. (Thank you god!) But I think this means the curve will be a little more generous than usual. Hopefully.</p>

<p>Question: Were you allowed to rip out the periodic table or not? Because my proctor said that we weren’t allowed to. And I feel like it may have cost me some time (not a ton of time but enough to answer a problem or 2)</p>

<p>Gah, missed the galvanizes steel one.</p>

<p>@Tyler. No you are not allowed. The tables had Do Not Detach printed on them, or at least mine did.</p>

<p>I thought we would be able to as well, seeing as many people before me have advised me to rip out the periodic table, but my proctor also said that we may not rip, fold, or do anything to the actual book except use it as scratch paper, so maybe the rules changed?</p>

<p>WELP, guess we couldn’t :stuck_out_tongue: haha yeah but I’m HOPING and PRAYING for a 700+</p>

<p>Does anyone else remember any more of the TTFE questions?</p>

<p>Does anyone know about how many you can actually miss (none omitted) and get 700+?</p>
