Quizzes and Final Exams given in the laboratory will be closed book. Instructor will hand out any additional resources required Lab Reports & Spectroscopy Problem Set Lab Reports and the Problem Set are considered take home exams Students may discuss freely among themselves course subject matter from the lab texts, instructors lectures, and instructor’s website notes, but not in the context of specifics regarding lab report preparation or solutions to problem set questions All students are encouraged to seek help from the instructor, regarding details of report preparation or solutions to problems Chemistry Laboratory Honor Code (con’t) Students are encouraged to report suspected violations of the Honor Code to the instructor Suspected violations should be reported orally and in writing to the instructor Students reporting violations should be prepared to participate in a Honor Code Hearing, if applicable Students, who are reluctant to report violations should consider the harm done to themselves and other students by students who cheat, which has a diminishing effect on grade value Chemistry Laboratory Class Elements (Con’t): Missed labs There are very limited provisions for missed lab sessions, especially in the summer sessions. Laboratory setup logistics severely limit provisions for making up missed lab sessions. Students can sometimes make up a lab during the same week of a given experiment (except in summer sessions). It is the student’s responsibility to anticipate and make provisions for missed labs. Missed laboratory sessions will receive a grade of zero for the report unless arrangements are made with the instructor for making up the lab work. Missed Lab Reports Laboratory reports not handed in will receive a grade of “0.” Late Lab Reports Laboratory reports are due the week following the experiment. One Week Late – 10 points deduction Two Weeks Late – 25 points deduction Three Weeks Late – Grade of “0” Chemistry Laboratory Laboratory Process 1. Quizzes - Quizzes are given at the beginning of lab and last about 20 – 25 minutes. 2. Lab Lecture - (30-45 min)) a. Introduction to the next experiment b. Review i. Student Questions ii.

Pre-lab reports containing Purpose, Approach, References, Procedure Descriptions, and proposed Data Presentation Templates are prepared using a supplied template. The prelab is due at the beginning of lab and will be checked by instructor during the Quiz. 4. Final Lab Report – The pre-lab reports are completed with experimental data, a data summary, and an analysis of the experimental results. 5. The final lab report is submitted the week following the experimental work 6. The Lab Report is prepared according to the detailed guide lines described in this document utilizing a Microsoft Word lab report template obtained from the web site - http://classweb.gmu.edu/jschorni Chemistry Laboratory Grades: 1. Reports, quizzes, exams, and the problem set are graded on basis of 100 points. 2. Instructor defines curve for assigning letter grades. 3. Missed assignments will receive a grade of “0”, if not submitted within 3 weeks of lab. 4. Quizzes / Problem Set (20% of Grade) a. Quizzes will cover the background and theory of the experiment performed the previous week, reaction equations, procedural details, applicable computations. b. Any quiz may have an additional question on Spectroscopy. c. Problem Set (Counts as two (2) quizzes) 5. Lab Reports (60% of Grade) The grade for each experiment is based on the laboratory report: Technical content Procedure Descriptions Results & Observations Analysis of Results, Conclusions Completeness Organization / logical structure Presentation / Neatness 7. Final Exam (20% of Grade) Chemistry Laboratory The Laboratory Report: 1. The laboratory report plays the most important role in the presentation of the Organic Lab Course. 2. The primary focus of the Organic Lab Course is to enhance the learning of laboratory techniques and evaluation of experimental results through a comprehensive laboratory report process. 3. The report process requires pre-lab planning, focused lab work, and a conscientious effort to effectively communicate the lab results to others in a clear, concise, grammatically and technically correct manner. 4. Continued improvement in neatness, technical content, organization, and readability dictate the grading process as the semester proceeds. 5. Final reports, including any charts and spectra for a given experiment, will be submitted not later than Friday of the week following the completion of the experimental data collection. 6. In some cases, final data collection, e.g., melting points, etc., is done at the beginning of the next experimental lab session, in which case the report will be due the following week. Chemistry Laboratory The Laboratory Report (Con’t): 7. During summer sessions there are three (3) lab sessions per week. The lab reports for a summer session week are due no later than Friday of the week following the experiments of the previous week. 8. The Lab Report is graded on the basis of: Detailed adherence to the lab report template logical Organization Completeness Brevity Scientific Knowledge & Correctness Computational Accuracy Neatness Readability 9. Pre-lab Preparation – The student uses a Microsoft Word report template (downloaded from the Instructor’s Website) to prepare a “Pre-lab Report”, which is checked at the beginning of the lab session. 10. The “Pre-lab” report then evolves to the “Final Report” to reflect adjustments to the pre-lab procedure descriptions, inclusion and summary of the experimental results, and the analysis of the results leading to applicable conclusions. Chemistry Laboratory The Laboratory Report (Con’t): 11. Results must be organized logically in the lab report using a student designed data template for each procedure within the report. Note: Each lab report consists of one or more “Procedures” (see slide 26) Results must be organized and presented in a logical manner, using tables where appropriate Algorithms, including variables, must be defined The computation of each result must be presented including the data substitution for each variable 12. The “Results Summary” section, following the last experimental procedure, is a paragraph summarizing all of the results obtained in the experiment. Ex: the mass of the methyl benzoate reagent was 3.146 g. 13. The “Analysis & Conclusions” section, following the “Results Summary,” is a logical development of a set of arguments, utilizing selected results from the experiment, to support any conclusions arrived at as a result of the experimental process. 14. Emphasis is placed on correct grammar and brevity. Use as few words as possible, but use complete, grammatically correct, sentences. Do not use “First Person”, i.e., I, me, my, our, etc. Chemistry Laboratory The Pre-lab Report The Pre-Lab is a template for the final report. It is created utilizing a Microsoft Word template downloaded from the Instructors Website: http://classweb.gmu.edu/jschorni/ Click on: orglabreporttemplate.doc The Pre-lab contains all the elements of the final report except the experimental data, i.e., the results, final computations, summary, analysis, conclusions. The pre-lab report will be checked by the instructor during the lab session. The components of the pre-lab consist of the following: Note: All information in the Pre-Lab Report is assumed known to the student prior to the lab session from the laboratory text resources and the Web Site notes provided by the Instructor.

Procedure Scenarios: a) If the experiment is the identification of an unknown substance, the following initial procedures are applicable. If the sample is a liquid the next procedure is to purify the sample and determine its boiling point by Simple Distillation. The second procedure in the report is the description of the purified unknown sample – solid, liquid, color, odor, etc. The next procedure for a liquid is to determine its Refractive Index, followed by a sub-procedure to correct the Refractive Index for temperature. ND20 = ND RmTemp + t (0.00045 / oC) t = Room Temp - 20 If the unknown sample is a solid, the melting point is determined. Determine the relative Solubility of the unknown in distilled water.

Procedure Scenarios (Con’t) b) Synthesis of Compound (Con’t) If one or more of the reactants is a solid, the following considerations are applicable: Determine Mass of reactant A to the nearest 0.001 g. by weighing Determine Mass of reactant B to the nearest 0.001 g. by weighing Note: Since the 2 steps above involve the same process to determine the mass of the reagents, only one (1) procedure is required. Compute the Moles of reactants A & B. Note: This is a separate procedure Chemistry Laboratory Report Elements (Con’t): 6. Procedures (Con’t): d. Procedure Scenarios (Con’t): b) Synthesis of a Compound (Con't): If one or more of the reactants is a liquid the following considerations are applicable: If a reactant is an Inorganic liquid, e.g., acid or base, use a Volumetric Pipet (volume precision is good to at least 0.001 ml). This volume must be converted to Mass using the relationship between volume, density and mass Density = Mass / Vol Mass = Density x Vol The Mass must be adjusted for the percentage content of the solute in the solution. For example, the % Nitric Acid in conc Nitric acid is 70%. Thus, the mass of HNO3 is 70% of the mass of the solution. As an alternative, the relationship between Volume and Molarity can also be used to determine the number of moles being used. (Molarity = Moles / Liter) Chemistry Laboratory Report Elements (Con’t): 6. Procedures (Con’t): d. Procedure Scenarios (Con’t): b) Synthesis of a Compound (Con't): If one or more of the reactants is a organic liquid the following considerations are applicable: The density and percentage content are usually not applicable. Organic liquids should be weighed directly to obtain the mass to the nearest 0.001 g. Once the mass is determined, it is converted to moles. Once the Moles of Reactants have been determined, set up the Stoichiometric balanced equation and determine the Molar Ratios Determine Limiting Reagent from the number of Moles actually used in the experiment and the Molar Ratio from the balanced equation.

Organic Chem Lab Algorithms Many of the Organic Laboratory Reports require the student to make computations for selected results. These include: 1. Mass of a reagent from the weight of the vial containing the reagent and the mass of the vial empty. Mass Vial Mass Vial Mass + Compound = 9.234g = 6.528g Compound = 2.706g 2. Mass of a liquid reagent (generally inorganic acids or bases) from the volume, density, and % composition. Mass (g) = Vol(mL) x Den(g/mL) x % comp/100 3. Moles of reagents from the Mass and Molecular Weight. moles = mass / mol wgt. 4. The Moles of a reagent can also be computed directly from the Volume and Molarity of the reagent, e.g. the Molarity of concentrated HCL is 12 moles/L moles = Vol(L) x Molarity (moles/L) Chemistry Lab Report - Computations 8. Limiting Reagent The “Limiting Reagent” is that reactant whose mass (on a molar equivalent basis) actually consumed in the reaction is less than the amount of the other reactant, i.e., the reactant in excess. From the Stoichiometric balanced reaction equation determine the molar ratio among the reactants and products, i.e., how many moles of reagent A react with how many moles of reagent B to yield how many moles of product C, D, etc. If the ratio of moles of A to moles of B actually used is greater than the Stoichiometric molar ratio of A to B, then the A reagent is in “Excess” and the B reagent is “Limiting.” If, however, the actual molar ratio of A to B used is less than the Stoichiometric molar ratio, then B is in excess and A is “Limiting.” Example 1 A + B C Molar Ratio A:B = 1 Moles actually used: A = 0.345 B = 0.698 Ratio of moles actually used (A/B): 0.345/0.698 = 0.498 0.498 < 1.0 B is in excess) & A is Limiting The theoretical yield of product will be the same as the “limiting Reagent” on a molar equivalent basis (A/C=1), i.e., 0.0345 moles. Chemistry Lab Report - Computations 8. Limiting Reagent Example 2 A + B C Stoichiometric Molar ratio A:B = 1 : 1 = 1.0 Moles actually used: A = 0.20 B = 0.12 Ratio of Moles actually used (A/B): 0.20 / 0.12 = 1.67 The ratio of A:B is greater than 1.00 A is in excess and B is limiting. Only 0.12 moles of the 0.2 moles of A would be required to react with the 0.12 moles of B. The reaction would have a theoretical yield of 0.12 moles of C (Molar Ratio of B:C = 1). Example 3 – Molar Ratio 1:2:1 A + 2B C Stoichiometric Molar ratio A:B = 1 : 2 = 0.5 Moles actually used: A = 0.0069; B = 0.023 Ratio of Moles actually used (A/B): 0.0069 / 0.023 = 0.30 < 0.5 A is limiting Only 0.0069 2 = 0.0138 moles of the 0.023 moles of B are required to react with 0.0069 moles of A. Since 0.0138 < 0.023: B is in excess, A is limiting. The reaction would have a theoretical yield of 0.0069 moles of C (Molar Ratio of A:C = 1). Chemistry Lab Report - Computations 8.

The Theoretical Yield Table (Con’t) The Theoretical Yield, in grams, is computed from the number of moles of the “Limiting Reagent”, the Stoichiometric Molar Ratio, and the Molecular Weight of the product. Yield = moles (Lim) x Molar Ratio x Mol Wgt The Percent Yield of a product obtained in a “Synthesis” experiment is computed from the amount of product actually obtained in the experiment and the Theoretical Yield. % Yield = Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield x 100 Note: The yield values can be expressed in either grams or moles Lab Report: Limiting Reagent Procedure setup Chemistry Lab Report - Computations 10. Retention Time is the time from point of injection of a compound into a Gas Chromatograph to its elution from the column. For a given set of instrument conditions this time is constant for any given compound. Thus, it can be used to identify compounds in an unknown mixture when compared to a mixture of known compounds. The retention time can be computed using the chart speed and the distance from the start point on the chromatogram to the mid-point of the peak. Velocity = Distance / Time Retention Time = Distance / Chart Speed Chemistry Lab Report - Computations 10. Peak Area / Molar Content The Area of a peak in a Gas Chromatogram is proportional to the Mole content of the mixture. Thus, the ratio of the peak area of a given compound and the total area of all the peaks on the chromatogram gives the mole fraction of the compound. The Peak Area can be computed by the “Triangulation Method,” which is the height of the peak multiplied by the “Width” of the peak at 1/2 the height of the peak: Area = Peak Height x Width @ 1/2 peak height The Mole Fraction is computed by dividing the individual peak areas by the sum of peak areas in the chromatogram. Mole Fraction = Peak Area / Total Peak Area The Mole Percent is computed by multiplying the Mole Fraction values by 100. Mole % = Mole Fraction x 100 Chemistry Lab Report - Computations 11.Thermal Response Adjustments to GC Peak Areas Mixtures of compounds will produce GC peak areas proportional to the molar content. Thus, Equimolar mixtures of compounds should produce Gas Chromatography peaks of equal area. Similarly, mixtures of any known molar content will produce peak areas in direct proportion to the molar content. Compounds with different functional groups or widely varying molecular weights do not all have the same Thermal Conductivity. This causes the instrument to produce response variations, which result in peak areas that are not in direct proportion to the molar content. Mole percent values of a mixture of unknown mole percent computed from peak areas can be adjusted for any non-linear thermal response based on the peak areas obtained from a mixture of similar compounds with a known Molar content, generally an equimolar mixture containing similar compounds in the unknown mixture. Chemistry Lab Report - Computations 11.Thermal Response Adjustments (Con’t) Correction Factors (called “Thermal Response Factors (TR)” are computed as ratios of the area of one peak in the known mixture acting as the “base peak” to the area of each of the other peaks in the mixture. Where subscript “s” refers to the “Base Peak” and subscript “i” refers to each compound in the mixture. Note: There must be a least two similar compounds in the known & unknown mixtures. The relationship between the peak areas of a mixture of compounds, the Molar Content, and the Thermal Response factors can be expressed as follows: area area moles moles i s i s TR TR i s Since the Areas of the peaks in the unknown mixture can be obtained by measurement and the Thermal Response Factors are known from the known mixture, the new corrected molar ratios can be obtained by rearranging the above equation: moles moles i s area area i s TR TR s i Chemistry Lab Report - Computations 11. Thermal Response Adjustments (Con’t) Each of the Molei / Moles values in the mixture is equivalent to the individual areas (now corrected for the Thermal Response effect) that were used to compute the “Total Area” of the peaks prior to computing the “Mole Fraction” and “Mole Percent” without the Thermal Response correction. Therefore, by adding the Molei / Moles values to get a “Total” value, the new corrected Mole Fraction can be computed by dividing each of the Molei / Moles values by the “Total” value. The new Mole Percent values are then computed by multiplying the new Mole Fractions times 100.

Refractive Index The measured value of Refractive Index must be corrected to a standard temperature (usually 20oC) The Index of Refraction (ND) decreases with increasing temperature, i.e., velocity of light in the medium increases as density decreases. Measured values of (ND) are adjusted to 20oC For measured temperatures >20oC, the correction factor computed below is added to the measured value because the value at 20 oC would be greater than the value at the measured temperature. Corrections for measured values <20oC are subtracted from the measured value. Temp Correction Factor t * 0.00045 = (Room Temp – 20) * 0.00045 The following equation automatically accounts for the measured temperature: ND20 = NDRm Temp + t * 0.00045 ND20 = NDRm Temp + (Room Temp – 20) * 0.00045 Ex: For an observed value of 1.5523 at 16oC, the correction is: ND20 = = = = 1.5523 + (16 – 20) * 0.00045 1.5523 ( – 4 ) * 0.00045 1.5523 – 0.0018 1.5505 IR /NMR Problem Set Notes 1. The Problem Set is a Powerpoint document that will be E-Mailed to each student. 2. The problem answers are to be completed, i.e., typed, in the shaded boxes provided. 3. Compound structures and materials not suitable for typing will be hand-entered in the shaded boxes. 4. Each problem consists of one or more parts, each of which has a shaded text box in which the student provides the required information. 5. In the Spectra problems, the student is expected to provide an analysis of the information provided for each part, i.e., Mass Spectrum, Partial Elemental Analysis, Ultraviolet/Visual Spectra, Infrared Spectra, 1H (proton) NMR Spectra, 6C (Carbon-13) NMR 1 13 Spectra. 6. The above results are then pulled together in a logical set of arguments leading to the identity of the compound, its molecular formula, and its structure. 7. The problem set counts as two (2) quiz grades. 8. See the next three (3) pages for notes on the analysis process. 9. Also check the Web Site documents on the IR and NMR lecture material. IR /NMR Problem Set Notes 10. Each problem provides several pieces of information to help in the identification process. a.

Mass Spectrum with Molecular Ion Peak Molecular Ion Peak represents Molecular Weight. Molecular Ion peak values that are Odd indicate the presence of an Odd number of Nitrogen atoms in the compound. Two Molecular Ion peaks with a relative abundance ratio of 3:1 indicate presence of a single Chlorine atom. Two Molecular Ion peaks with a relative abundance ratio of 1:1 indicated presence of a single Bromine atom. f. Partial Elemental Analysis of the Compound The percentage values given represent the percent of the compound’s Molecular Weight attributed to that element. Usually %Carbon & % Hydrogen is given. The molecular ion peak(s), molar absorptivity coefficient, and the principal functional groups from the IR spectrum provide the information necessary to identify any additional elements present in the compound. The remaining Molecular Weight after the Carbon and Hydrogen have been accounted for is divided among the remaining elements in the compound. IR /NMR Problem Set Notes f.

Examples: 3 Cherries, 125 People, 50 Measurements, 16 oz in a pound Most numbers involved in technical and scientific work are obtained through some process of measurement. All measurement processes are imprecise, i.e., only approximations of the true values. The precision of an instrument dictates the relative accuracy of the values that can be reported, i.e., the number of significant digits. The precision of a number refers directly to the position of the last significant digit relative to the decimal point. All none zero digits are significant. Zeros other than those used as placeholders for proper positioning of the decimal point, are also significant. There is uncertainty in the last significant digit. For example: A person records his weight on a scale to be 160 lbs. The last “zero” is a placeholder and is not significant. Thus, the “6” has uncertainty. His true weight could be 158 lbs, 161 lbs, 159.4 lbs, 160.0 lbs. etc. When multiplying or dividing groups of measured values the answer will have the same number of significant digits as the least accurately known number. When adding or subtracting numbers, the answer is significant only to the fewest number of decimal places contained in any of the numbers being added or subtracted, i.e. significant to the least precise number. Number Significant Digits 9600 2 20004 4.0006 0.0709 6.000 5 5 3 4 0.0005 1 1.07 1.070 3 4 700.00 5 No decimal point; therefore last two zeros are not significant, i.e., placeholders. The uncertainty is in the last significant digit, i.e. the “6” Five significant figures; the 3 zeros are significant; the “4” has uncertainty. 5 significant figures; precision is defined to the fourth decimal 3 significant figures; the zero after the decimal is a placeholder Precision is defined to the third decimal, thus all zeros here are significant. The uncertainty is in the last zero Zeros to the right of the decimal are used as placeholders for decimal point Precision is defined to the fourth decimal. Precision defined to the second decimal; thus all digits significant Precision is defined to the third decimal; thus all 4 digits are significant. The uncertainty is in the last “zero” Precision is defined to the second decimal, thus all five digits are significant 25 x 11.7 = 290 not 292.5 16.5 / 3.780 = 4.37 not 4.3651 4.65 + 3.8906 = 8.54 not 8.5406 7.71 x 0.001 + 180.5 + 2000 = 2000 7.71 x 0.001 x (1/180.5) x 2000 = 0.1 (0.066 x 39.82) / ( 1.43 x 8.61) = 0.21 (0.008 + 180.5 + 2000) = (180.5 + 2000) = 2000 (0.008 x 0.006 x 2000) = (0.00005 x 2000) = 0.1 (2.6 / 12.3) = 0.21 Citing Chemical References References: 1.
