Practical SACs:

Hi everyone,

A lot of my SACs in chemistry and biology are based on an experiment which we do beforehand. I know a lot of these questions are common sense but it’d be good to have a feel of the type of answers my teachers are looking for - does anyone know where I could find these type of questions? I’ve asked my teachers for previous SACs but they’re not allowed to give them out for practical tasks. Thanks!

Aim
Materials
Method
Results
Graph/table
Discussion
-IV/DV
-experimental control
-controlled variables
-potential errors
-improvements
-safety precautions
-explain the results from a biological perspective
-e.g. Label and draw plasma membrane
Conclusion

^^That's how my bio pracs went :)

Good list. Also could ask for hypothesis/null hypothesis. If the SACs are trying to emulate the exam, the last question could ask you to explain the effect of certain errors on the results of the experiment, which requires a very solid understanding of the prac.
