Hello! I am new here. I am a year 10 student who has just done their maths early sit. To be honest, paper 3H was far easier than i expected. A few odd hard ones here and there, otherwise, not so bad at all.

No, We can't
plus, this physics exam was on 14th, so the one you're giving is probably CIE.

You can ask doubts and such but not exam content.

I'm sitting my English A Paper 1 and Paper 2 this week.... I've been self studying at home as a mature student, mainly due to time and cost implications.... am now really panicking and wonder if anyone can tell me whether there has been a main Anthology focus if you are doing yours in lessons?  I'm guessing that those in the past 3 papers I've seen are unlikely to come up but cannot find out what was in Jan 2013 paper. 

If anyone can shed some light to help me find a quick area of focus for Thursday's paper 2 I would really appreciate it.  Equally appreciate if anyone could put my mind at ease, I do write presentations, business papers, HR policies, marketing items and have worked in various sectors with exposure to a lot of poorly written English and need grammatical adjustments so am I worrying for nothing.  What is worrying me the most is that I did NOT want to do anything literature based and notice that this is quite literature heavy.....  GRRR  might need to look at an alternative if I don't achieve a C in this!

Question about Chemistry.
How come the efficiency of the Haber process in reality is 15%, instead of the theoretical 30%?
So, in other words, only 15% of Ammonia is produced, instead of the theoretical 30%.
Are there like factors affecting it or something?   ??? ??? ??? :o :o :'(

There are reasons for that. Unfortunately, I don't remember any of them right now.
But let me try.
Experimental error? Theoretical calculations assume you do no experimental errors in masses or volumes of reactants for example. So 30% yield is when your experiment is completely perfect, which is impossible.

Check your textbook, there must be something about that.

I thought Chemistry IGCSE today was incredibly easy. Easier than most past papers..
