About General Chemistry II Laboratory

Lessons contain learning objectives, a to-do list, a brief instructor video, and an experiment.  Throughout the course, students will develop basic laboratory skills and record keeping. Students will:

• Adhere to instructions with respect to laboratory safety and to recognize hazardous situations and act appropriately.
• Recognize standard laboratory glassware and analytical equipment.
• Correctly carry out common laboratory procedures.
• Measure and report quantities with appropriate precision.
• Convert raw data to a physically meaningful form.
• Properly maintain a laboratory notebook with enough detail that others could repeat any of their experiments.

To be successful in this course, students must effectively prepare in advance for laboratory work. Throughout the course students plan and collect data to answer a scientific question, then analyze data to identify relationships and to effectively report the data. Students will make a claim and support that claim with evidence from the collected data, and recognize whether results and conclusions "make sense".

Students have 3 to 9 months to complete this course from the time of enrollment. You will work on a combination of initial activities, 7 experiments, and a final open book exam. You may work at your own pace and complete lessons on your own schedule, submitting up to three items per week for grading.
