Page history last edited by Gina Bennett 11 years, 8 months ago

This content represents part of NANSLO project deliverables: Milestones 2-c and 3-b, December 2011.

 

Table of Contents

 

1. CORE THEORY Units

    Core curriculum chapters associated with an introduction to chemistry.

 

2. Optional THEORY Units

    Additional units available for use where appropriate.

 

3. New NANSLO Lab Units

    Lab experiments provided by the NIC WASc program and further revised by the NANSLO Chemistry Discipline Panel.

 

4. Optional or Potential Lab Units

    Several existing Lab Kit labs and five new RWSL Lab experiments under consideration by Chemistry Discipline Panel 

 

5. WASc Lab Units

 

The documents below have been saved in Microsoft Word (97-2003) format. Because this format can be opened by a wide range of word processing applications (including OpenOffice, LibreOffice, iWorks), they are considered openly accessible.

Lab Manual (Introduction to Lab Work in this course)

CHEM-Lab-Sem1-LabManual.doc  
Stochiometry

CHEM-Sem1-Lab1.doc (kit lab)

Could be modified for RWSL (e.g. Spectrometric decolorization with bleach)

Could also be replaced with lab without titration.

Qing will share a sodium bicarbonate/vinegar lab

Adam will also share his Stoichiometry lab

Measurements & Density 

CHEM-Sem1-Lab2.doc  (kit lab)

Could vary by requiring measurement with different glassware.

Would benefit from some additional SME involvement.

Conductivity

CHEM-Sem1-Lab3.doc  (currently designed as RWSL but will probably be kit lab to start)

Mark will share the Mines Chem 1 conductivity lab

Alternative: Titration for formation of insoluble barium sulfate or calcium sulfate or calcium carbonate

Water Hardness CHEM-Sem1-Lab4.doc  (kit lab)
Structures & Shapes of Molecules CHEM-Sem1-Lab5.doc  (kit lab)
Determination of Iron in Water

CHEM-Sem1-Lab6.doc (RWSL)

Mark will share his version of this lab.

Alternatives: Vitamin C reduction of Fe3+; Aspirin, Fe cations, NaOH & colorimeter.
