CHEM 1BL/1BC - GENERAL CHEMISTRY AND COOP LABORATORIES
Chemistry 1BL has been designed to demonstrate and reinforce the basic concepts of thermochemistry,
electrochemistry, chemical kinetics, and atomic spectroscopy. Laboratory techniques such as the use of a
voltmeter, ammeter, spectroscope and calorimetry will be introduced. The analytical methods learned in Chem.
1BL are applicable to many other scientific disciplines such as Biology, Medicine, Environmental Science,
Physics and Engineering.
Chem. 1BL and 1BC are one-unit courses separate from the lecture course but intended to accompany it.

Also Required:
Chem. 1BL: General Chemistry Laboratory Manual for Chemistry 1AL, 1BL, 1CL
by Petra van Koppen, McGraw-Hill Pub. (2001)
Chem. 1BC: Discovery and Analysis in the Laboratory Chemistry 1AC, 1BC, 1CC
by Petra van Koppen, McGraw-Hill Pub. (2001)
Safety Glasses and Bound, quadrille ruled, duplicate page notebook are required. Lab
Notebooks will be sold by the Chemistry Club, Jan.7-11.
Safety glasses must be worn by all students in the laboratory at all times. You will not be allowed into the
laboratory unless you have safety glasses to protect your eyes. You must check out of your lab (check all
contents of your lab drawer) at the end of the course (or if you drop the course before the end). Failure to do so
may result in a charge for equipment not checked in.
NOTE: Chem. 1B and 1BL/1BC may not be taken P/NP by science and engineering majors because these
courses are required in preparation for the major.
REQUIRED LAB FEE: A non-refundable $32.00 Lab Fee is Required for this Course. It will be charged to
your BARC account upon confirmation of your enrollment.
Studying for Chemistry 1B
This is not necessarily a difficult course, but most students find that they have to spend time studying to
understand the material. It is important to keep up with the schedule. Read the chapter as scheduled. As you
read the chapter, stop and work all the exercises as they appear in the text. This is the only way to be sure you
understand the material as you proceed through the chapter. After you have finished the chapter, work all the
assigned problems given below. This is a minimum list of problems that all students should do. The solutions
manual, available in the bookstore, has the answers to the problems. Never look at the answers first. Always try
to do the problems by reading and reviewing the material in the text.

Learning to solve Chemistry problems requires you to work the problems yourself. Watching others (e.g.
instructors, tutors or other students) work problems or reading the solutions in the solution manual is no substitute
for working them yourself. You must go through the reasoning process yourself until you understand each type
of problem. Sufficient practice is important. If you need more practice solving problems, do other problems in
addition to those assigned.
