Chemistry-Study and teaching; Wilderness areas; Environmentalism
Handout providing details for the ID1, Section 25 final research paper and oral presentation on a wilderness site or potential wilderness area which has been lost or compromised or might be lost in the near future.
Chemistry-Study and teaching; Voltammetry; Electrochemistry; Solution (Chemistry)
Experiment with the goal of gaining an understanding of anodic stripping voltammetry and an understanding of the factors involved in performing quantitative analytical determinations, through the determinations of amounts of copper.
Chemistry-Study and teaching; Handouts; Solution (Chemistry); Volumetric Analysis
Experiment in which the objective is to apply the methods of volumetric analysis to the determination of the percentage of potassium hydrogen phthalate in a sample, the molecular weight and ionization constant of an unknown weak acid, and the...
Handout on the grading policies for laboratory experiments in accelerated General Chemistry. It lists a number of factors which are taken into consideration when grading the laboratory reports.
Chemistry-Study and teaching; Handouts; Homework; Crystals; Solvents; Solution (Chemistry); Electrons
Experiment with the objective of synthesizing an inorganic complex compound in pure form and high yield and of discovering the chemistry involved in the syntheses. Determining the compound's paramagnetic susceptibility is involved.
