GUIDELINES FOR PRE-LABORATORY AND POST-LABORATORY REQUIREMENTS FOR GENERAL CHEMISTRY
A. Introduction
Scientific writing is part of the job description of a researcher in the fields of Science, Medicine, and Engineering. A scientific paper is a technical paper that communicates the results of significant studies, discoveries, or inventions in these fields. It disseminates pertinent information so others in the same or related fields can benefit from them. This document is open for validation in terms of accuracy, reliability, and repeatability of results. Thus, a scientific paper becomes a part of creating and validating new knowledge, techniques, discoveries, and inventions. As a student in Chemistry laboratory, you will be required to write scientific paper based on the results of your class experiments. This will serve as an important training ground for you as research-proficient scientists, medical & allied health science practitioners, engineers, and educators in the future. The training will include preparation of schematic diagram of experimental procedures as a pre-laboratory requirement; and completion of experimental worksheets and writing of scientific paper as post-laboratory requirements.
B. Schematic Diagram of Experimental Procedures The writing of schematic diagram will train you in summarizing and understanding technical procedures in doing scientific experiments. A schematic diagram is a stepwise flow chart of the experimental procedures that can be easily understood and interpreted. The process of making this flow chart will require an active reading and understanding of the described procedures. This will enhance your skills in interpreting technical
