KEY REVISION MATERIAL:
- This is a link to a set of mind maps for the whole course. By completing these, you will consolidate all the learning in N5 Chemistry. There are even answers at the back! Make sure you try to complete the mind maps yourself before checking the answers. Retrieving information is the key to success! National 5 revision mindmaps AND ANSWERS
- Topic Breakdown for Past Papers 2019 – B&W This grid will tell you all the questions from the recent past papers that relate to different key areas. Happy revising!
WORD OF WARNING: remember that a few aspects of the course changed in 2017-2018. This means that Past Papers prior to this will have a few questions that you can not complete. Simply ignore any questions relating to ESTERS AND CONDENSATION POLYMERS. The updated SQA course notes can be found in this document ++ SQA Nat 5 Parent Info Book 2018.
When in doubt ask your teacher!
