Students solve individual problems using microscale equipment and a variety of techniques such as thin layer chromatography, titrations, and spectroscopy. The course consists of a four-hour laboratory period with a teaching assistant under the supervision of the professor.
Students keep laboratory notebooks, which also serve as laboratory reports.
Grades are based on performance in the laboratory and the laboratory notebooks. This course is linked to Chemistry 210 . The recitation sections for Chemistry 210 and the corresponding laboratory sections for Chemistry 211 are listed together in the Time Schedule under Chemistry 210.
