<font face="serif">Students -- it is going to be up to you to prepare
for lab this wee</font>k by writing your own step-by-step lab
procedures. As I mentioned in class, the procedure for making the
known standards will be very much like the procedure you used to
make the standards in the Nickel (II) lab from CHM 111. In that lab
you were tasked to use a combination of volumetric flasks and
pipettes to make the standards. I HIGHLY recommend that you look
back at your old lab notes and/or the lab procedures for the Ni 2+
lab to help you get ready for lab.<br>
<br>
While you may still have access to the old lab from last semester
via BlackBoard, I wanted to make sure everyone had easy access to
it. You will therefore find a copy of the old lab procedures
attached to this e-mail.<br>
<br>
Early preparation for this lab will make it go very smoothly (and
possibly quickly). By looking at the current lab instructions and
filling in what you need from the old instructions the task of
preparing for lab will not be as difficult as it might seem. The
lab assistant (Ann) will be looking at your lab notebooks prior to
you starting the lab. Students that do not have a clear procedure
in their notebooks will be asked to leave the lab. I will also be
collecting the lab notebook "carbon copy sheets" (not the originals)
at the end of lab on Tuesday.<br>
