Wow! I'm surprised I got 80% not quite confident on some of my answers but I think the multiple choice helped!

Anyway thanks! I'm off to revise this chapter!

Past question 10, I don't even remember being taught it, but it's same as an exam - just apply what you know already

Still only 60% though, but it's an improvement on my usual, lol. Us all the way so far on mocks... i better get it right next week!!

At GCSE the sylabus taught you that the electronic configuration went 2,8,8,2.

At A level, they teach it as 2,8,18,32 and as you need to fill each shell before moving onto the next on, the configuration of copper would be 2,8,18,1 as it has 29 electrons (2+8+18+1=29).

Hopes this helps i think i'm right...

The above explanation is full of lies. It's a shame that people are STILL lied to in SALTER's
