Welcome to Current Issues in Chemical Labs.

Current Issues in Chemical Labs is a course designed to combine the analytical chemistry experience gained in previous courses with an understanding of how these techniques apply in the modern laboratory setting. This course is delivered in the hybrid format, most of the scheduled hours for the class will be wet lab hours with the background material being delivered on-line. Thus you are expected to take responsibility for completing the delivered content/assignments outside of the scheduled class time BEFORE coming to lab.

Each experiment set has a number of items associated with it:

In each section you will find links posted to various articles, videos and websites. Please make sure you have gone over this material and are ready to discuss it before each class.

The risk assessment tools are to be used prior to all practical labs. They are provided so that the hazards associated with the various chemicals and procedures can be assessed by the student and recorded in the laboratory notebook. Information about lab safety is covered in M1.

Please take some time to familiarize yourself with the organization, instructions, and content available to you by exploring the content area links in the navigation menu on the left (organized according to the course schedule in the syllabus).
