The laboratory meets once each week for three hours in Olin 113. Two such books will need to be purchased, because they will be handed-in on a rotating basis. The purpose of the lab notebook is to detail completely the theory, procedures, data, analysis and conclusions for every experiment. The lab notebook must be handed-in to the instructor at the completion of each experiment.
Reports are due at the beginning of the lab period one week after the lab is performed.
Written laboratory reports will be required for the practicum portion of some experiments. The format for the reports and the method of evaluation are described in a separate sheet. Reports are due at the beginning of the lab period one week after the lab is performed. Students are expected to attend all laboratories during the scheduled hours. Students may arrange to switch lab sections with permission of the instructor.
