CHEM 1A LABORATORYSUMMER 2018Lab Instructor:Mackenzie AlvarezEmail: alvarezmack@Office Hours: email only – I reply quickly, usually instantly.Lab Time:MTWTh 12:40pm – 5:05pm Lab Room:MTSC 407COMMENTS: 1)On laboratory days when an experiment is being performed you must have appropriate dress for the laboratory:Clothing must cover between the neck and knees or a lab coat must be wornClose-toed shoes must be worn (no sandals)Contact lens should be replaced with prescription lens if possibleLab goggles must be worn if using the Bunsen burnerGloves will be available, but not always needed.Unless otherwise instructed, each student is to work independently (no groups)Attendance is mandatory for lab. NO MAKEUP FOR LAB EXPERIMENTS, no exceptions.Please refrain from using cell phones in lab. Cell phone activity in lab constitutes a safetyhazard. You will need a scientific calculator, NOT A CELL PHONE, a PENCIL (NOT A PEN), eraser, your lab manual, and a periodic table for lab. Often you will also need your textbook. Each week we will do a laboratory experiment. You are not to begin until I have instructed you on how to proceed with the experiment. During the laboratory lecture, I will discuss not only the procedure but also safety and waste disposal, so it is important that you show up to lab ON TIME and READY TO WORK.center-165100Locker #: _______Combo: ____ - ____ - ____4000020000Locker #: _______Combo: ____ - ____ - ____OTHER PENALTIES: Other penalties that can result in a deduction of points include, but are not limited to: not wearing goggles, wearing open-toed shoes, leaving lab for an extended period of time, leaving a mess (either at the scales or work bench), using a cell phone in lieu of a calculator, and eating or drinking in the lab. The point deduction will be at the discretion of the instructor. CHEATING: I realize that this laboratory manual has been around for a while and other people have the answers to all the labs. If I find that you are copying someone else’s old lab report to turn in, you will receive a zero grade for that day. I also consider one student doing all the work and the other student copying cheating as well and again, I will deduct points.HELP WITH LECTURE MATERIAL: If there is time at the end of lab, I am available to answer questions about lab, lecture material, or homework. Please take advantage of this. I am always happy to help if time allows. Your lab worksheets will be handed back to you after I have checked that you did the experiment. Lab should be an easy point grab, just show up and run the experiment and you will get full points for the day. You are responsible for keeping track of your points. I am human and do make recording errors from time to time. I encourage you to check in with me periodically throughout the semester to make sure your tallied score matches my point totals ................
