Yeah, I have this list printed off from the BoS site. It's always near at hand when I need it.

Well they give you the standard potentials and the formulae, so it is a good question.

I know when I was a writer for the chemistry and religion exams in '04, they didn't get one, and you're not allowed to take any paper into the exams, so I'd say not.

No you don't get that.

Study and memorise them. It's what possibly cost me a band 6 in chemistry.
