CH 227 - General Chemistry Laboratory 1

2 Credit(s)

First laboratory course of the general chemistry lab sequence. Introduces chemical lab safety, common laboratory techniques, and analytical skills. Lab emphasized green chemistry.

Prerequisite/Corequisite: CH 221  
Learning Outcomes
Students who successfully complete this course will be able to:

1. Working safely in the lab while following explicit laboratory instruction

2. Demonstrate chemical lab techniques such as pipet use, weighing by difference, glassware selection and use, gravity filtration, vacuum filtration

3. Correctly record data and observations and write lab reports

4. Demonstrate understanding and awareness of green chemistry, analyze greenness of labs

5. Gather, interpret, and analyze data and error, and communicate findings to demonstrate understanding of basic chemical concepts and reactions

6. Apply unit analysis problem solving techniques or mathematical formulas, individually and in groups, with data students collect in lab, to solve density, stoichiometry, solution, calorimetry, and gas law questions
