Experiment 1:

Welcome Back to Chemistry Lab

 Lets get the semester started off right, by thinking. It's easy, all you have to do is determine the following information, as a class.

Volume of 1 drop of water
Mass of 1 drop of water
Number of molecules in 1 drop of water

You will of course have to report an average and standard deviation for all of the numbers. The equipment you will be given is a pipet, small beaker and you may use a graduated cylinder, a volumetric flask or a buret, it's your choice.

You need to remember everything you know about significant figures, averages, data size, etc.      

A Short Form Memo seems an appropriate tool for this lab, but you can leave out the purpose and conclusions sections, since the lab is only worth 15 points.

 No Prelab Questions
