3
General Procedures
  • Come to lab on time and prepared
  • Complete prelab
  • Appropriate attire
  • Lab writeups due the following lab session
  • Late lab penalty 25 off for each day late
  • All writeups must be turned in no matter what
  • Makeup labs
  • Same week or following week only
  • See me and your TA

4
Your grade
  • Activity Points

5
Prelab includes
  • Title and date
  • Definitions
  • Answers to prelab questions
  • Procedure
  • Data tables
  • Prelabs are done PRIOR to lab in your notebook
  • TA must sign off at start of lab session

6
Summary includes
  • Title and date
  • Results (tables, graphs, values, errors, etc.)
  • Primary souces of errors
  • Sample calculations
  • Summaries are due one week after lab completion
  • Templates/guides are available (manual and web)

7
Lab Reports Includes
  • Abstract
  • Results/sample calculations
  • Discussion/conclusions
  • Answers to postlab questions
  • Write-ups must be neat
  • Your TA decides whether your work is acceptable
  • Grading rubric is a guideline for you

8
Equation/Concept List
  • At the end of lab notebook, divide page(s) in
    half vertically
  • For each lab
  • Left side List primary equation(s) used
  • Define symbols
  • Right side Indicate linked concept
  • Example
  • M ?V mol Finding moles of reactant M
    molarity (mol/L) or product in solutions
  • V volume (L) Reactants and products are
    mol moles related through mole ratio

9
Data Measurement
  • How do we record data?
  • What is the best value to report?
  • What is uncertainty (precision)?

10
Precision, Accuracy, Error
  • Precision reproducibility
  • Accuracy trueness
  • Error standard deviation (uncertainty)

11
Accuracy vs. Precision
  • Precise
  • Not Accurate

Better Accuracy Not Precise
Precise Accurate
12
Types of Error 1
  • Systematic Accuracy

13
Types of Error 2
  • Random Reproducibility / precision

14
Reporting Data
Average
Standard deviation
15
Examples of Precision
  • 100 150 200
  • 140 150 160
  • 149 150. 151
  • 149.5 150.0 150.5
  • 149.9 150.0 150.1
  • and so on
  • Average 150
  • Precision very different

16
Examples of Precision/Standard Deviation
  • 100 150 200 50
  • 140 150 160 10
  • 149 150. 151 1
  • 149.5 150.0 150.5 0.5
  • 149.9 150.0 150.1 0.1
  • and so on
  • Average 150
  • Standard deviation reflects measuring device

Significant Figures
  • Which numbers are meaningful?
  • 1. Mathematical
  • 2. Standard Deviation

21
Mathematical Sig. Figs.
  • Multiplication/Division
  • Round answer to fewest sig. figs.
  • Addition/Subtraction
  • Round answer to fewest decimal places.
  • Standard deviation takes precedence over these
    rules.

22
Example
3 sig. figs./2 decimal places
4 sig. figs./2 decimal places
Report 10.01 0.02 g
Standard deviation takes precedence
23
Direct vs. Derived Values
  • Direct
  • Measured /no calculations required
  • Derived
  • Must be calculated from data
  • How do we account for our uncertainty?

Density Calculation
  • A 218.44 0.01 g metal cylinder has diameter of
    2.50 0.01 cm and is 5.00 0.01 cm long.
  • What is the density of the metal?
  • Mass 218.44 0.01 g
  • Diameter 2.50 0.01 cm
  • Length 5.00 0.01 cm
  • Volume ¼pd2l Density m/V
