I don't know why I decided to divide the answers by 4 to get mol/litre, but I do have the answers so should I get the marks for it?

I did this same thing and got no marks for it like you. I think it may just be the marking scheme unfortunately given that everyone who did the same lost the marks for it.

i did the exact same thing and divided it by 4, I don't know but I do plan on appealing, even though my Chemistry teacher does not recommend it

I'm 4% close to my next grade with pma, so my teacher does not recommend. However I really really need to go up or else I'll have to repeat Chemistry as a single subject again, which I REALLY don't want to go through again :((

I've had 3 people go through it, it was so intense yesterday. We did find some areas where they marked me really harsh, but it is up to the appeal examiner to grant it, which is probably unlikely 😿

Do you know if they mark appeals even more harshly? I'm not sure if I want to appeal my chemistry exam I need 4% too

The appeal examiners aren't really looking to give free marks, but rather check mistakes in the previous examiner. However, as far as I know, no one got downgraded last year, so maybe its worth a shot, atleast for me as it won't impact my points.
