There was a typo on the practice test questions:

Calculate the pH of the solution formed after 25 mL of a 0.10 M NaOH solution is added to 100 mL 0.10 M HOCl solution.

       Answer:       7.05

 

If you have not been able to enroll in the class due to space limitations, I suggest that you come to lab sections that fit your schedule the 1st two class meetings.  If you find an open spot in lab, you may be able to add the course.  The instructor (R. Roland) must authorize the add.  I’d like to do anything I can to help you get into the course!

 

CHEM 1N LABS ARE CURRENTLY FULL.  SWITCHING LABS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED AT THIS TIME.

THANK YOU!!!  Sorry for any inconvenience.

 

Labs start April 7th—DO NOT MISS THE 1st DAY OR YOU MIGHT BE DROPPED.

Make-ups must be approved by the instructor (documented medical emergencies, UC away games, or family funeral only) and must be completed no later than the following week.
