CHEMISTRY II*

The following labs are not suitable for after school makeup for a variety of reasons; including cost, safety or special reagent considerations. To get the activity portion of the credit for these labs you may perform the following activities if you have an excused absence. The credit is specifically for the stamp associated with the lab and does not excuse you from the rest of the lab write-up. Each topic must be researched on the web. Give addresses for the sites you used. These addresses will be checked. You must write a one page summary of what you discovered about the topic(no WEB page printouts). BEFORE you do this make sure you have discussed what you are doing with your teacher. If more than one topic is listed you may only do one of the topics. Sometimes the search may yield results that don't quite match the topic but are of interest to you. Look at the lab and match your topic to the content of the Lab in deciding if your search is OK.
