Homework Assignments. Many Students who "did well" in high school chemistry do not get good grades in college chemistry. The reason: they fail to develop the earning skills and problem-solving skills necessary for the advanced level of chemistry at Brooklyn College. The big difference between high school and college is the large amount

page 3 of work you must do on your own and the emphasis we place on THINKING (instead of memorizing). Your key to success? Learning how to study properly and doing LOTS of homework! Falling behind in reading and homework is a SERIOUS MISTAKE. Organize your life around your course-work and keep up with the assignments. As you read Brown, LeMay and Bursten (BLB), do the exercises and example problems in the chapter. In other words, read and work your way through the chapter. After working through each chapter work out the assigned homework problems. Note well that there will not be enough time in class for your instructor to go over every assigned problem. A good indicator of the kinds of problems found in tests is the homework problems. See your teacher during office hours for extra help. NOTE: Your instructor has the option of completing a recitation assignment one week after the scheduled meeting. _________________________________________________________________________________ Reading and Homework Assignments.

In some schools, a laboratory fee is charged everyone. Our practice is to charge you only for the replacement cost of any items you lose or break. After check out, a bill will be prepared which you may pay at the bursar's office the following semester.

If you have checked in for any lab course you must check out even if you only attend class for one or two weeks before dropping the course. Students who fail to check out will be charged a fee of $50 plus the cost missing or broken equipment. Students who drop a course must go to the stockroom to check out as soon as possible.

_________________________________________________________________________________ PREPARATION FOR LABORATORY Preparation ahead of time for your laboratory experiment will help you to better understand the experiment, to do a better job, and to learn more. In order to encourage you to do advance preparation, we are requiring you to make an outline of the experiment before lab. This outline is to be handed in to your lab instructor at the start of the period and will count toward your laboratory grade. The outline should state the goal of the experiment and briefly outline the procedure. The outline must be neatly done (preferably typed) and on one page. An example of an acceptable outline for experiment 2B is given below. Sample Outline Experiment 2.

Determination of Water of Crystallization of Hydrate.

Goal:

To measure the mass of water in a sample of an ionic salt in order to determine the formula of the hydrated salt.

Procedure:

1. 2. 3.

Clean a crucible and cover and heat strongly. Cool and weigh empty crucible. A sample of hydrated salt is weighed accurately in the crucible.

page 7 4. 5.

The water is driven off by gentle heating of the crucible. The sample is weighed again after cooling the crucible with the cover in place.

The Principle of the Experiment: 1. The weight loss gives the mass of water in the sample and allows us to calculate the number of moles of water which was in the hydrated salt. 2. The moles of salt are calculated from the mass of anhydrous salt. 3. The ratio of moles of water to moles of salt gives the formula of the hydrate. Relevance of this Experiment: 1. This experiment gives experience in gravimetric analysis. 2. This experiment is an example of how chemists determine empirical formulas of compounds.
