From this course, students will develop qualitative/quantitative experimental techniques through hands on experiments, and gain good understanding of related chemical principles and concepts. Upon completion, students are expected to be able to:
1. Demonstrate safe laboratory practices;
2. Record experimental procedures and results clearly and effectively in a laboratory report;
3. Use laboratory generated data to reach sound conclusions about chemical phenomena;
4. Master good laboratory skills to achieve high-quality and reproducible results; and
5. Meaningfully connect laboratory activities to models and concepts learned in class.
