Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

What is the charge on the ion formed by a Group 2 element?

  1. 2−
  2. 1+
  3. 6−
  4. 2+
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: D — 2+
Award 1 mark. Group 2 atoms have two outer electrons, which they lose to reach a noble gas configuration, forming ions such as Mg²⁺ and Ca²⁺. Negative ions form from non-metals that gain electrons.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

Which intermolecular force acts between ALL molecules, whether polar or not?

  1. Hydrogen bonds
  2. London dispersion forces
  3. Permanent dipole–dipole forces
  4. Ion–dipole attractions
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: B — London dispersion forces
Award 1 mark. Temporary dipoles arise in any electron cloud, so London forces act between all molecules, even non-polar ones such as I₂ and CH₄. Hydrogen bonds and permanent dipole forces need polar molecules.

CXC CAPE Chemistry: Chemical bonding and structure FAQ

Is Kramizo free for CXC CAPE students preparing for Chemistry?
Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, with no card required and no trial countdown. That free quota works across every subject and every topic in our bank, so you can mix Chemical bonding and structure practice with other Chemistry topics or even switch to a totally different CXC CAPE subject without paying anything. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds detailed progress analytics, but the free tier is the real product — used by thousands of GCSE, IGCSE and CSEC students.
Are the Chemical bonding and structure questions aligned to the official CXC CAPE Chemistry syllabus?
Every question is written against the published CXC CAPE Chemistry specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real CXC CAPE paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from CXC CAPE.
How is Chemical bonding and structure typically tested on CXC CAPE Chemistry papers?
Chemical bonding and structure appears across multiple question types on real CXC CAPE Chemistry papers — most commonly as multiple-choice questions in the objective section, structured short-answer questions in the main paper, and occasionally as part of an extended response. Kramizo's practice bank reflects that mix: 4-option MCQs, true/false statements, fill-in-the-blank key terms, multi-select questions, and ordering questions. Working through the bank gives you exposure to every question style examiners actually use.
