November 2025 - GCSE Science 5-a-day
Every GCSE Science sheet published in November 2025, with answers. Biology, chemistry and physics recall, definition and calculation, drawn from every strand.
Every sheet in November 2025
The same date always regenerates the same five questions, so a sheet you print today is the sheet a classmate prints tomorrow.
- 1st November 2025What observation showed the nucleus is positively charged and very small?
- 2nd November 2025State the equation that links pressure, force and area.
- 3rd November 2025In a simple d.c. electric motor, state the name and function of the component that reverses the current in the coil every half turn.
- 4th November 2025A student measures 24 cubic centimetres of gas in 3 minutes. Calculate the rate.
- 5th November 2025Explain why the rate of an enzyme-controlled reaction decreases sharply above the enzyme's optimum temperature.
- 6th November 2025Give one way of reducing the spread of malaria.
- 7th November 2025Name the gland that monitors and controls blood glucose concentration.
- 8th November 2025Explain why genetic engineering can introduce a new characteristic in a single generation, while selective breeding cannot.
- 9th November 2025Write the electronic structure of an atom with 12 electrons.
- 10th November 2025Why do elements in the same group have similar chemical properties?
- 11th November 2025Why is the amount of product directly proportional to the amount of limiting reactant?
- 12th November 2025A reaction profile shows the reactants at 220 kJ and the products at 340 kJ. State whether the reaction is exothermic or endothermic.
- 13th November 2025State the two named reactants used in the Haber process.
- 14th November 2025A solution forms a green precipitate with sodium hydroxide solution. Which ion is present?

- 16th November 2025State the UK mains supply frequency and typical potential difference.
- 17th November 2025Why does reducing the volume of a gas increase the pressure even though the molecules do not speed up?
- 18th November 2025A ball decelerates uniformly from 18 m/s to 0 m/s over a distance of 2.7 m while being caught. Using (final velocity)^2 = (initial velocity)^2 + 2 x acceleration x distance, calculate its deceleration.
