Additional Remarks

To be able to pass the CHEM113 course,all CHEM-113 Lecture hours and
Lab Sessions must be attended and related Lab. Reports/ Lab Sheets
must be submitted according to the deadlines given.

There are no make-up sessions in this course!

Acquaint yourself with the day’s experiment and solve the problems
given at the end of the notes for each experiment in the Laboratory
Manual before coming to the lecture/laboratory.

A test and a quize will be given before each Lab Session during the
lecture hour. The test will involve questions ON THE PREVIOUS
EXPERIMENT(S). THE AVERAGE OF THESE TESTS WILL MAKE UP
YOUR MIDTERM-1 MARK. The quiz will involve questions/problems
on the day’s experiment ; THE AVERAGE OF THESE QUIZES WILL
MAKE UP YOUR QUIZ MARK.

Lab reports must be submitted as hard and soft copies!

You should always have your laboratory coat and safety glasses on when
you are working in the laboratory.

You must wear appropriate clothes for safety. Otherwise, you will not be
allowed to conduct your experiment, which means that you will fail.
