Chemistry 11-12-09 Hydrogen Emission Spectrum/Intro to Spectroscopy Lab

CHEMISTRY: Great job with Part 1 of the Spectroscopy Lab using the diffraction grating! Here’s the mini-lecture on the intro to the hydrogen emission spectrum and the lab from Thursday. How are your drawings coming? If you have a question about the lab presentation, this is the vodcast with the instructions. Also, if you’re not going to be in class tomorrow, you can come by any time to make it up. The whole packet, including drawings, is due Tuesday.

HON CHEMISTRY 11-12-09 Flame Test Lab

HON CHEMISTRY: Wow! Great job on the flame test lab – pretty cool, huh?! It’s one of my favorite labs. Lab reports are due Monday. What about the conclusion? Answer the objective, and explain how you used flame tests to identify an unknown. BTW – how did the spectroscope work out? Address that in your conclusion as well. And don’t forget the questions at the end!
