CSEC Chemistry · May/June 2018 · Paper 2 · Question 1(c)(i)

From the stopwatches displayed in Figure 1 on page 4, record the times taken for the carbon dioxide gas to be collected in the appropriate spaces in Table 1. The time taken for Test 1 has already been recorded.

This question uses a figure or table from the paper — you'll see it when you practise.
