Harris, D.C. Quantitative Chemical Analysis, 7th ed., WH Freeman

							Chem 2300 Notebook /Informal Reports Grading Procedure: Total : 20 points

For an informal Report, I will collect the duplicate pages from your notebook on the date
indicated in the syllabus. REMEMBER—YOUR INFORMAL REPORT IS YOUR NOTEBOOK!!!
START OFF RIGHT FROM THE BEGINNING BY ORGANIZING YOUR NOTEBOOK AS
DIRECTED BELOW!!!!

1.) Title                 1 point
         Give the title of the experiment, the date performed, the date due your name and
the name of any partner. Should be on a fresh page in the notebook. Blank pages before
this page should have an X through them.

2.) References:         1 point
        Use the following form for all references. For example the textbook is:

Harris, D.C. Quantitative Chemical Analysis,7th ed., WH Freeman and Company, Inc.,
NY, 2007, pp.xx

Author. Book, Publisher, Place, Year, Page numbers used.

3.) Purpose:           2 point
        In your own words, state concisely the reason for doing the experiment.

4.) Pre-lab FLOW CHART                 2 points
        See the sample flow chart for how to do this. You must do this before coming to lab
so that you are ready to start! Do the CALCULATIONS for preparing any solutions!

4a.) Addendum to Outline: Note any changes to the procedure when you get to lab.

5.) Data Collection:           2 points
        Take your data neatly. Record ALL raw data. Note any problems that come up
while doing the experiment. Note all observations. SIGNIFICANT FIGURES COUNT!

6.) Data Analysis and Statistical Analysis: 6 points
        Show one sample calculation for every calculation used. Perform statistical analysis
(show a sample calculation of the statistical calculation, such as the average and the
standard deviation etc.) of the data. Remember to use the correct number of SIGNIFICANT
FIGURES in your final answer!!

7.) Results and Discussion:            6 points
        Restate your results +/-std. dev and 95% confidence level. Explain and discuss
what you learned in the laboratory. DRAW A CONCLUSION! For example answer the
following questions: What did you expect to find, and did you find it? What did you
determine your unknown to be? What is your accuracy? your precision? What errors were
made?
