What are the requirements for setting up a chemistry practical examination, including apparatus and materials needed?

Item 1 emphasizes the importance of confidentiality, stating that the information regarding the examination's requirements (items 2 and 3, though item 3 is not visible) should not be disclosed to candidates before the examination.

Item 2 details the specific apparatus and materials that must be provided for each candidate in the Chemistry laboratory. This list indicates that the practical examination will involve:

• Acid-base titrations: This is evident from the inclusion of a burette, pipette, methyl orange, phenolphthalein, and various dilute acids and bases.
• Qualitative analysis: This is indicated by the presence of numerous reagents for identifying ions and gases (e.g., silver trioxonitrate (V) solution, aqueous barium chloride, lime water, litmus papers, iodine solution), along with test tubes, a boiling tube, and a burning splint.
• General laboratory skills: Basic equipment like beakers, spatulas, filtration apparatus, a glass rod, wash bottle, watch glass, and a bunsen burner suggest tasks involving heating, mixing, and separating substances.

This paper serves as a guide for examination centers to ensure proper preparation and security for the practical chemistry assessment.
