Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knows what things to study for the lab questions on the final-- if it's going to be on specific labs, or just on general procedures, etc.

thanks.

I would also like to know which lab topics will be emphasized on the exam. Since they did not correspond to the lectures until the end. Thanks :<)

Okay, I'm thinking that the lab questions will be on major concepts that were in the labs. First of all, since we had about 3 labs on the electromagnetic spectrum, knowing what colors correspond to what wavelengths would probably be good. Also, the Beer-Lambert law (A=Ecl, I think) came up in more than one lab. I'm just glancing through the returned labs I have...probably you want to know standard deviation; Le Chatelier's principle; the energy, free energy, and enthalpy equations; K(sp) compared with temperature; and molality.

I only have labs up to #6 (and I, um, lost my lab manual), so if anyone wants to add to this list that would be great. Also, remember, there aren't going to be too many lab questions on the test....I'm thinking they'll be concept-type questions, but don't quote me on that.
