OCR GCSE Chemistry B (Foundation Tier) – Paper 2: Question Paper (J248/02) – 2025

This question paper assesses students’ understanding of the later chemistry topics in the OCR GCSE Chemistry B (9–1) specification at Foundation Tier level, focusing on recall, simple application, and basic scientific skills.

Paper 2 covers content from the second part of the specification, including:

Chemical reactions and energy – reaction profiles, exothermic and endothermic reactions, and fuels
Rates of reaction – simple factors affecting reaction speed
Organic chemistry – basic hydrocarbons, fuels, and polymers
Chemical analysis – simple tests for gases and ions, chromatography, and identifying substances
Chemistry of the atmosphere – air pollution, greenhouse gases, and climate change
Using resources – water treatment, recycling, and sustainability

The paper includes multiple-choice questions, short structured questions, simple calculations, and basic data interpretation, designed to be accessible while still testing understanding of key chemistry ideas.

This question paper is ideal for revision practice, mock exams, classroom assessment, and independent study, helping students become familiar with exam style, question wording, and Foundation Tier exam structure.
