Lectures and exams
This year, laboratory lectures will be held in SL 120, on Fridays, at 2pm. Dr. Kriz will be giving these lectures.
The material covered will include theory and the techniques used in the experiments. In addition, he will lecture
on each individual experiment in advance of when you will perform the experiment in the laboratory.
The examinations will be designed to test your understanding of the theory and techniques of the experiments,
as well as testing for safe laboratory practice. Each examination will be worth 100 points. There will be no
make-up examinations offered. Students who are unable to attend class on the day of a scheduled examination
will need to contact Dr. Kriz in order to make alternative arrangements. Appropriate written documentation in
support of any request for special consideration will be required. Sample exams are available from Dr. Kriz’s
webpage.
The two laboratory exams will be administered in SL 120 according to the following schedule:
Midterm exam: Friday, February 11th in SL 120
Final exam:
Tuesday, March 15th in SL120, 3:30 - 5:30

GENERAL LABORATORY REGULATIONS AND SAFETY CONCERNS (Text: pp. 4-20)
It is absolutely necessary that good safety practices be followed in the laboratory, for your good health and mine.
The safety quiz is available online. This quiz must be passed.
1.
Wear safety glasses at all times. If you don't have a pair already, please purchase them from the
bookstore. The safety glasses must completely cover the eyes, with no gaps.
2.
No open flames are allowed in the laboratory except as noted by the instructor. You can use a water bath,
hot plates, or aluminum blocks for heating liquids.
3.
Note positions of eye wash fountains, safety showers, and fire extinguisher.
4.
Please don't bring food or drinks into the lab.
5.
Organic solvents must be kept in the hood. Handle solvents with care and avoid contact with skin (use
gloves, if necessary). Don't breathe solvent fumes. Always evaporate solvents in the hood! Most
solvents are toxic!
6.
Proper disposal of organic solvents: We have waste containers in a hood for proper disposal of organic
compounds. Aqueous mixtures should be poured into proper containers, as well. If in doubt as to where
to put the stuff, please ask.
7.
Dispensing reagents: You should always take a spatula with you when you go to the balance to aid in
transfer of solids. A Pasteur Pipet is useful for liquids. Be sure to clean up any spills on the balance pan.
Read pages 43-46 and pages 512-518 for help in transferring and measuring liquids.
8.
Report all accidents to your instructor, immediately!
9.
Students are responsible for their own medical coverage in case of injury.
10.
Clean up your laboratory bench and hood before leaving the lab. Be sure to clean the balance. If we
do well in cleaning during the quarter our cleanup duties on March 9th will be minimized! Clean up any
spills when they occur!
11.
You must do your laboratory work during our laboratory periods. Attendance is required unless
permission has been obtained in advance from the instructor. No makeup periods have been scheduled!
Good lab preparation, in advance of the lab, improves safety!
12.
Health Insurance. According to University policy, students are responsible for their medical coverage in
case of injury in the laboratory. It is recommended that you obtain medical insurance. If you are not
already covered by your family's or your own health insurance policy, you might consider purchasing
insurance through the University-sponsored Student Health Plan. For more information, contact Health
Services.
B.
LABORATORY FEE
A laboratory fee of $40.46 has been included as part of the fees that each student must pay as part of tuition and
fees. This fee covers normal and minimal breakage as well as costs associated with chemicals and supplies need
in this course. The money also helps in costs associated with replacing expensive instrumentation required with
doing modern chemistry. Students who break glassware in excess of the normal amount will be required to pay
for broken items. Please be careful!
C.
CHECK-IN TO LABORATORY
On January 5th you will be given a check-in list, including a combination number for your lock. Carefully check
your equipment against the list (Text: pp. 33-36). If you are missing items, get them on January 5th. After this
date, you must pay for anything that is lost. Make sure that you remember to put the clamps away at the end of
the period! Be sure to write down your combination number and lock your locker before leaving the laboratory.
Many students aren't too careful on this score! Departmental policy requires that student's checkout of the
laboratory at the end of the quarter (including mid-term withdrawals).
D.
PRELABS
Complete the prelab report and turn it before the end of the period.
E.
LABORATORY NOTEBOOK AND REPORTS (PAGES 20-27 OF TEXT)
A bound laboratory notebook is required for taking notes and data. The bookstore has several types of notebooks.
Pick one that is lined. If the pages aren't numbered, you should number them yourself in ink. Allow the first
several pages for a table of contents. Allow an adequate number of pages for the experiment, so that one doesn't
have to skip ahead in the notebook. All notebook entries must be made in ink, and all data recorded directly into
the notebook at the time of observation. A recommended format is shown in "Advanced Preparation and
Laboratory Records" (pp 20-27). I will inspect your laboratory notebook on the day you start the lab experiment. A
brief procedure should be included, along with any necessary calculations asked for in the experimental
procedure.
Report sheets are available from my website for Chemistry 354. Transfer the appropriate information from your
laboratory notebook onto the sheets. These reports should be submitted by the due date indicated on the
schedule. The report sheets include spaces for answers to the assigned questions. The reports must be legible
and you must follow acceptable standards of English, including correct spelling.
F.
SAMPLES (PAGE 27 OF TEXT)
Submit samples in a properly labeled vial with the report sheet on the laboratory due dates. See page 27 for label
format.
