Chemistry Laboratory III (Practical)
|
CO33: Synthesize organic compounds and, purify them using various solvents, including water, alcohol, and alcohol-water mixtures for crystallization. CO34: Determine melting and boiling points of compounds using distillation and capillary methods and evaluate the effect of impurities. CO35: Separate the components of a given mixture using paper and thin layer chromatography (TLC). CO36: Compile and report the results efficiently, and develop communications skills. CO37: Contribute effectively in course-specific interaction. |
Approach in teaching: Power point presentation, laboratory instructions and demonstrations.
Learning activities for the students: Peer learning, hands-on-learning, interpretation of data, record writing and learning through virtual labs.
|
Conduction of experiments, lab records, viva voce.
