These are sample questions of ChemCatalyst Spaced Repetition Questions (SRQs) The SRQ worksheets from ChemCatalyst stagger and plan questions to automate spaced repetition, test and extend knowledge, and maximise learning effects. The structure and complexity of exams is getting ever more difficult to gauge with the year on year pressure on examination boards to provide challenge and rigour. ​ Whilst some of the SRQs test knowledge, many are all long answer, synoptic questions designed to provide a deeper experience than traditional worksheets.
