ARCH-C-04: Why the 150s Classroom Method Fails Under the 90s Clock

Standard Classroom Method (Too Slow)~150s (Blows 90s Clock)
First calculate the moles of magnesium: n(Mg)=0.6024=0.025 moln(\text{Mg}) = \frac{0.60}{24} = 0.025\text{ mol}. From the 1:11:1 stoichiometry, n(H2)=0.025 moln(\text{H}_2) = 0.025\text{ mol}. At rtp, V(H2)=0.025×24 dm3=0.60 dm3=600 cm3V(\text{H}_2) = 0.025 \times 24\text{ dm}^3 = 0.60\text{ dm}^3 = 600\text{ cm}^3 (~105s).
The Fast ShortcutTarget: 40s (Saves 110s)
**Line 1 (2424 Cancellation):** V(cm3)=mAr×24,000=0.6024×24,000V(\text{cm}^3) = \frac{m}{A_r} \times 24,000 = \frac{0.60}{24} \times 24,000.
**Line 2 (Cancel 2424):** 0.60×1000=600 cm30.60 \times 1000 = 600\text{ cm}^3 (20s).
Where Students Lose Time: In 18 past UAT-UK questions (8% of Chemistry), candidates lose 110s by mixing cm³ and dm³ without applying 1 dm³ = 1000 cm³. Instead, apply C4 with Maths 1 skill M1.2.
