• Include all data sheets

• Include all calculations sheets. Calculations should be shown and easy to read for the instructor.

• Include responses to questions on a separate piece of paper indicated in the experiment description

• Include any additional work as assigned by your instructor in the video

Part 1 – The purpose of the experiment

What was the purpose of this experiment?

What were you trying to do? Note this is not the procedure but rather a summary of the goals of the experiment.

The purpose of this experiment was to illustrate the various types of measurements that are done in the chemical laboratory and in the workplace.

Part 2 – The procedures used

In this section, you outline what procedure was followed. If this procedure was given in a handout or is in a text, then all you need to do is identify that particular reference rather than rewriting the entire procedure.

The procedure for this experiment was provided in the handout “Measurement in the Chemistry Laboratory” by Mendeleev (1868). Additional information was listed in the textbook/lab manual “Chemistry “ by Noble (2005There).

Part 3 – The results

In this section, you list all the results you got, along with any class data that was collected. All calculations, equations, reactions are included in this section. The results gathered in this experiment are provided in the data table on the following page.

Part 4 – The conclusion

This is the part of the experiment where you draw conclusions about your lab work. What do your results mean? What did you learn from this experiment? This is not a restatement of your experimental results but an attempt to make some sense of the data. This is where the majority of writing takes place in a lab report.
