Weeks 6 and 7 are research extensions of the basic experiments. Results of the work in weeks 4-7 will be presented orally during the 10 th week lab period. Entropy, and The Hydrophobic Effect. Written laboratory reports are required for the first kinetics experiment and for both thermodynamics experiments. After the first kinetics report, you will have the opportunity to rewrite portions for a higher grade.
Reports are due ONE WEEK after completion of the experiment.
It is okay to discuss the results of the lab with your partners, and to do the calculations together, but writing the report itself should be an individual effort. Points will be deducted for late reports.
