The final exam will be a two hour exam which will be comprehensive in nature. Approximately one-third of the exam will come from material studied since test II and one-third from material covered on each of the previous two exams. The final will be entirely multiple choice.
The date and times of the final exam are:
Wednesday, May 3 8:00-10:00 am
Wednesday, May 3 4:00- 6:00 pm
Note: If you miss an exam for any reason you must notify me immediately at 481-6288, through e-mail or through the Chemistry Department Secretary at 481-6289. Make up of exams will be handled on an individual basis.
7. Quiz dates will be announced in lecture.
8. Attendance is expected in lecture. You are responsible for all material presented and all announcements made during lecture periods. Reading the chapter before coming to class is helpful and will make it possible for you to answer questions in the lecture. I expect you to answer questions in the lecture. Lecture notes for each chapter in PowerPoint format are available in the bookstore. Read those before coming to class. There are blanks which we will fill in during class time. Have words ready to use in the blanks when I call on you in class.
9. Special homework assignments will be given and collected on dates announced in the lecture.
Assigned chapter exercises and problems will not be collected, but I strongly recommend that you answer these questions and work out the problems. Quiz and exam questions will often be similar to these assigned problems. The answers will be available on the CHM 116 website. http://www.ipfw.edu/chem/116friedel/. You will need to have a copy of Adobe Acrobat Reader (available for download free at http://www.adobe.com ). In preparing these solutions, Dr. Berger has made use of Greek characters and math symbols. These require proper fonts, WP Greek and WP Math A so that all equations can be read.
10. Lab reports are due at the beginning of the lab period following the one in which the experiment was performed. Lab reports turned in late may be subject to a penalty.
11. All lab experiments have associated with them an advanced study assignment (ASA). The purpose of the ASA is to familiarize you with the types of exercises and calculations you will do during the lab. The ASA will be collected at the beginning of the last lecture period of the week preceding the scheduled laboratory. The ASA for the first experiment will be collected on January 13.
12. The laboratory is a vital part of the course. Experiments not performed due to absence must be made up in another laboratory section within one week of the date of absence. Any lab not made up within this time period will result in a grade of 0. Students will have one laboratory period (2 hours and 50 minutes) to complete each laboratory assignment. Students who do not finish the lab in the allotted time will not be given additional time, either in their own lab or any other lab section. Students arriving one hour or more late will not be allowed to begin the lab. Experiments missed because of absence must be made up within one week of the lab period in which that experiment was to be performed. Any lab not made up in this time period will result in a grade of 0. Any student missing three or more labs will receive a grade of F for the course.
13. If you have a disability or acquire one and want to find out what special services and accommodations are available, you may contact Services for Students with Disabilities in Walb 113 (481-6950, voice ITDD). If I or your laboratory instructor can be of assistance don't hesitate to inform us of your special needs.
14. If at any time during the semester you find yourself in need of talking to someone about a personal or family crisis, please call any of the following individuals: Don Smith, IPFW personal counselor, at 481-6592; Ben Gates, Protestant campus minister, at 481-6992; or Mike Gibson, Catholic campus minister, at 481-6994. Campus Ministers are located in Walb Union 235.
15. The last day to drop is Friday, March 17. You must officially withdraw from the class to avoid getting an F. If you simply stop coming to class, this will result in your receiving a grade of F.
16. A note about appropriate behavior. Your laboratory instructors and I expect you to be thinking about chemistry when you are in the classroom or laboratory. We expect you to listen when we are instructing and speak when you are called on to ask or answer a question or express an idea. We expect your full attention so the appropriate learning environment is available to each person in the class.

Chemistry 116 Laboratory Spring, 2006
1. Required Materials
The materials required for lab include the lab manual, safety goggles, a scientific calculator and a bound hard cover notebook.
2. Lab Sections
There are six different CHM 116 laboratory sections as indicated on page 1 of this packet. The laboratory meets in SB 415.
3. Lab Reports
The report for each laboratory consists of the hand-in sheet (the `report' or `data' sheet) from the lab manual with all the appropriate spaces for data and results filled in. Pay attention to significant figures and units.
Lab reports are due at the beginning of the lab period following the one in which the experiment was performed. Lab reports turned in late without a valid reason will be subject to a penalty.
4. Advance Study Assigments
All lab experiments include an advance study assignment (ASA) which will familiarize you with the types of exercises and calculations expected in lab. Each ASA is worth 5 points. You must complete the ASA so as to hand it in on the date indicated on the laboratory schedule page.
5. Laboratory Absences
The laboratory portion is a vital part of the course. Experiments not performed due to absence must be made up within one week of the missed lab period. Any lab not made up in this time period will result in a grade of 0 unless there are special extenuating circumstances. It is your responsibility to notify the instructor as soon as possible after becoming aware that a lab will be missed.
6. Laboratory Grades
There will be 14 lab experiments during the semester; each lab report will be worth 15 points. The 14 ASA's will be worth 5 points each. The lab portion of the course will contribute 260 points in total since we will count your 13 best scores out of the 14 possible.
7. Check-In and Check-Out
Check-in will occur during the first lab period; check-out during the last period. If you drop the course, it is your responsibility to follow the check-out procedure as soon as possible.
8. Safety
When you check into lab, your laboratory instructor will discuss the Chemistry Department Safety Regulations. You will be required to read and sign a copy of the regulations indicating that you agree to abide by these regulations. These regulations must always be followed. You are required to purchase goggles (for example, from the bookstore) and must wear them at all times in the laboratory unless explicitly told otherwise by your instructor.
9. Recording Procedures and Data
It is useless to perform an experiment and lose the resultant data or record data for which experimental conditions are not carefully recorded. We will expect you to keep an approved BOUND LABORATORY NOTEBOOK (spiral-bound or other notebooks with removable pages are not acceptable). You will record in your notebook all data as they are collected along with experimental conditions. Writing data to loose sheets of paper for later entry in the notebook is unacceptable. For a more detailed description of the required format for the lab notebook, see the following page.
10. Objectivity
Scientific experiments and the results of those experiments should be approached and reported objectively. We recognize that there may be times when, in spite of your best efforts or for reasons beyond your control, things will not go well for you in the lab. If this happens, see your instructor immediately for guidance on how to proceed. If you have given a good effort on the experiment, then the least you should do is prepare a report including your experimental data, however bad you may think them to be. NEVER borrow results from others unless advised to do so. This is cheating and could result in the obtaining of an F for the course.
FORMAT FOR BOUND LABORATORY NOTEBOOKS
1. Your bound laboratory notebook should conform to the protocols expected in most science and engineering laboratories. Your entries should be timely, unambiguous, complete, permanent and dated. Your notebook must have a permanent binding so that pages are not removable. It should be sturdy enough to hold up against spills, scorches and occasional wettings.
2. All data should be recorded in ink while the experiment is being performed. Data must be recorded in the bound notebook and not on the report sheet itself.
3. You must use the notebook for all 14 labs.
4. Be sure to abide by the following for the notebook:
-Write your name, course number, and address on the outside.
-Never tear out pages.
-Include a Table of Contents at the beginning listing title and number of experiment,
date performed, and page on which experiment begins.
-Number all pages (except Table of Contents).
-Always use permanent ink, never pencil. One point will be deducted if ink is not used.
-Cross-out errors with a single line; do not use wite-out, do not
scratch-out errors, and do not cross out entries multiple times.
5. The format of the entries for each experiment should be as follows:
I. Title Section
Include name, number, and date of experiment at the top of the page in the lab notebook.
II. Data Section
It is recommended that the format of the data section be the same as that of the report sheet. Be sure to include units on quantities. This section must be initialed by the instructor as well as the sheet to be handed in next week before you leave the laboratory.
III. Results and Calculations
Include all calculations necessary to analyze the data collected. Unless told otherwise by your instructor, the calculations do not have to be completed during the lab period. However, it is recommended that calculations be done during the period so that, in the event of poor results, you might have an opportunity to repeat parts of the lab experiment.
6. The lab instructor will review your notebook entries. Two points will be deducted if a bound notebook was not used in the lab. The bound notebooks will not be collected at the end of the semester.
