| The student was taking time for mark 'X' dissapear from view. |
 |
| Cooperation is shown througout the experiment. |
 |
| The conical flask is swirled once sulphuric acid is added into sodium thiosulphate. |
 |
| Mark 'X' is observed from top of the conical flask. The other pair of students were discussing their data. |
Chemistry SPM was on 6 Dec 2010, which is a week ago. As I go through the question paper in more details, the arrangement of the question was slightly different compared to the last few years. Normally questions involving calculation or more difficult question are arranged at later part. But this year the questions are seems more likely arranged according to topics in chemistry syllabus.
