Can I use UK AQA Chemistry past papers for OxfordAQA?
Yes. Choose questions by topic: a UK paper can contain questions for more than one international unit.
Choose questions on the topics listed for your unit. Check the rest with your teacher; a whole UK paper won’t necessarily fit.
CH04 — Organic 2 and physical 2
Use UK A-level Paper 2 for rate equations and organic chemistry, and Paper 1 for Kp. Look for NMR, carbonyl reactions, acylation and polymers.
Add sulfonation, Friedel–Crafts alkylation and the required radical aromatic reactions. UK enzymes and detailed DNA structure go beyond the named OxfordAQA topics, but you still need cisplatin. Acids and electrode potentials belong to CH03.
Revise CH04 and try the questions
June 2024 UK AQA A-level 7405/1
For thermodynamics, cells, acids and inorganic chemistry in CH03. Its Kp questions fit CH04.
June 2024 UK AQA A-level 7405/2
For rate equations and organic chemistry in CH04. Revise the additional OxfordAQA aromatic reactions separately.
The UK paper numbers don’t match CH01–CH05
UK AQA AS Paper 1 includes Kc, which belongs to CH02. UK AQA A-level Paper 1 includes Kp, which belongs to CH04. Choose by topic each time.
Use the mark scheme for the question you attempt. UK grade boundaries won’t give you an OxfordAQA grade for a selection of questions.
