Student Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
1. safely handle laboratory glassware, equipment, chemicals, and generated waste in accordance with waste disposal and safety regulations.
2. maintain a laboratory notebook according to course guidelines and report results in a scientific laboratory report.
3. practice basic laboratory techniques used for the preparation, purification, and separation of organic compounds and apply the laboratory techniques to single- and multi-step organic transformations.
4. use instrumentation such as gas chromatographs, polarimeters, infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometers for the identification of organic compounds and interpret data acquired from these instruments.
5. correlate organic chemistry theory with experimental outcomes.
6. use experimental data to calculate reaction metrics such as yield and atom economy.
7. articulate and follow ethical principles in the laboratory context.
