General Chemistry Practical II

At the end of this course, the students should be able to: 1. identify the general laboratory rules and safety procedures; 2. collect scientific data and correctly carry out chemical experiments; 3. classify the basic glassware and equipment in the laboratory; 4. carry out preliminary tests, ignition, boiling point, melting point, test on known and unknown organic compounds; 5. execute solubility tests on known and unknown organic compounds; 6. list elemental tests on known and unknown compounds; and 7. conduct functional group/confirmatory test on known and unknown compounds which could be acidic, basic, neutral organic compounds.

Continuation of CHM 107. Additional laboratory experiments, functional group analysis, quantitative analysis using volumetric methods.
