Mock Exam - Edexcel IGCSE Chemistry Paper 2C (Set 1)

(1)
A useful resource for students to practice their knowledge and examination technique for future external assessments. This is for the following paper: 4CH1 - 2C This mock is based on our 2022 Predicted Papers. These questions are completely original and have been designed from scratch. There has been no reuse of previous exam questions. Our mock paper follows the format of the true Edexcel IGCSE Chemistry 2C paper closely. It is also the exact duration and mark-count, with questions of increasing difficulty. A mark scheme is also attached. The paper covers the following specification points: • Topic 1e - Chemical formulae, equations and calculations (1.25 – 1.36) • Topic 1i - Electrolysis (1.55C – 1.60C) • Topic 2b - Group 7 (2.5 – 2.8C) • Topic 2c - Gases in the atmosphere (2.9 – 2.14) • Topic 2e - Extraction and uses of metals (2.22C – 2.27C) • Topic 2f - Acids, alkalis and titrations (2.28 – 2.33C) • Topic 2h - Chemical tests (2.44 – 2.50) • Topic 3a - Energetics (including practical 3.8) (3.1 – 3.8) • Topic 4f - Carboxylic acids (4.34C – 4.37C) • Topic 4h - Synthetic polymers (4.44 – 4.50C) Disclaimer: This document was created by department heads with many years of experience teaching the Pearson Edexcel IGCSE Chemistry course. We cannot however guarantee that it is an accurate representation of upcoming examinations and students should not treat it as such. Please use this as an aid, alongside other methods of revision.
