The Generalized Laboratory Report Form (GLRF) is NOT the same as the 
report forms.   The GLRF will serve as the cover page to all of your 
laboratory reports.   You can find it as a PDF document on my CHM 111 
website.

Now, each lab also has a subsequent laboratory report form that goes 
with it.   You can find these on the  departmental web page:

ttp://chemistry.mercer.edu/genchem/chm111.htm

or you can just use the link to them I have provided on my web page 
(which I list above).   You need to scroll down to the section called 
"Lab Stuff" on my web page and the second and third links refer to the 
departmental report forms and my personal  "generalized laboratory 
report form" respectively.

As it turns out, our departmental webmaster deleted the link to the 
second lab report form because he thought all of the information was 
contained in the one lab report form.  I wanted you to use the second 
lab report form because it had a place for you to record the literature 
value for the density of water from the CRC.   So here is how we are 
going to proceed.   Use the form that is online now, but part III, the 
Density of an Unknown metal, should be the attached to the second lab 
and not the first.   On this form please write in the literature value 
for the density of water at the laboratory temperature you recorded.

Hope that answered your questions -- but let me know if you have others.
