At the end of each lab period, your laboratory instructor will sign your lab notebook. Failure to obtain the necessary signature will result in forfeiture of the grade for the experiment. While you are encouraged to discuss the experiments with other students, all laboratory reports are to be individually written. If your instructor has reason to believe that you have not complied with these rules, you will forfeit your grade for that experiment and may be asked to leave the course. You will typically have one weekend to work on your report after the experiment is completed.
All reports are due at the scheduled start of class.
Waste Disposal, Acetone Use, and Glass Disposal Chemical waste, with very few exceptions, will be collected. Chemical waste should not be placed in sinks or trash cans. Waste bottles will typically be found in the left reagent hood. Segregation of waste is important to avoid accidents. Always pour waste slowly and carefully.
