Pearson Edexcel IAL Chemistry syllabusChemistry YCH11First assessment 2019

Assign the element's initial value and both product values, demonstrate one increase and one decrease and balance the ionic equation if the question asks for it.

How this is tested

  • Identify disproportionation by tracking one element to higher and lower oxidation states.
  • Justify chlorine or manganese disproportionation with all three oxidation numbers.
  • Balance an ionic disproportionation equation with atoms, charge and state symbols.
