You will be working in groups:

The experiment is to be performed as described in Angelici's Synthesis and Technique in Inorganic Chemistry.  This experiment will take approximately 2 1/2 lab periods to complete.  Once the columns are packed and the solutions made, the elution of the three compounds must be done in the same day.  Once started, the experiment must be completed becuase the starting reagent decomposes over time.  This portion may take up to 6 hours, depending on how organized you are as a group.

Write up
Each person must submit a separate lab report.  Only the experimental section may be the same in each report.    The lab report should be completed by 5:00 pm Friday,  April 18, 2008.  This experiment is worth 30 points of your lab grade. No late reports will be accepted.

The report must follow the guidelines on the Lab Report page and should include the following information:

Introduction: Brief summary of the experiment stating the purpose  of the experiment.

Experimental: List work that you have done. DO NOT copy the instructions directly from the lab book.

Results:  Give experimental results (data) obtained from the experiments.  Include spectra.

Discussion: Discuss the experiment from preparation to results.  You may want to support your conclusions with references.  These should be clearly documented.  You may want to discuss possible problems with the experiment and suggest ways of improving the experiment.  Most of the grade will depend on this section.  Calculate the 10Dq values for each of the compounds and compare to the spectra.
