NOTE: The observations submitted
must be those made for the current experimental procedure. Please
DO
NOT bring to the laboratory
session any previous Observations Sheets, or results in any form for
the current experiment (even your own,
if you have taken this course before).
Students are responsible for working independently
and submitting their own work for each
experiment.
All forms of student dishonesty are considered unacceptable. If
students have
clearly used plagiarism or copied from
other students, a grade of zero will be given
for the
assignment or examination. For instances
of copying of assignments and reports, all students
involved will be assigned a mark of zero.
Cheating on final examinations will invariable result in a
grade of F
being assigned for the course. Please see the College Calendar for
a description of
students rights and responsibilities.

Report Form
Report forms are given for every experiment
in this laboratory. These Reports identify the conclusions
and calculations that are important for
each experiment. Only the Reports
for Experiments B, D,
F, G and I will be submitted for marking.
The Reports for the remaining experiments are included
to guide your preparation for the quiz
that will be given to evaluate those experiments (see below).
For the Reports that are to be marked,
answers should be recorded in the space provided. These
Report forms must be done in ink.
(One mark will be deducted for reports done in pencil.) The
Reports are due at the start of the next
laboratory period (one week ).
No marks will be
given for reports that are late. If
there are extenuating circumstances, such as
documented illness, please contact your
laboratory instructor as soon as possible.
NOTE: The laboratory
reports and quizzes together, constitute the largest percentage of
the
laboratory grade. To successfully
pass the laboratory component of the course, it is essential
that the required experiment reports be
submitted promptly and that you are well prepared to
write the quizzes for the designated experiments.

Quizzes
The marks for Experiments A, C, E and
H will be largely based on quizzes for these
experiments rather than written reports.
Experiment F also has a short quiz (along with a
report). Quizzes,
testing the understanding of the concepts of each of these
experiments, will be
