    The document provides guidelines for structuring a lab report, including sections for an abstract, introduction, experimental section, results and discussion, conclusion, post-lab questions, and references. Additional guidelines specify formatting requirements like font, alignment, language style, use of ChemDraw for structures, and inclusion of at least three references apart from the lab manual. Key sections are the abstract, introduction, experimental section, and results and discussion, with the results and discussion being the most important part for reporting data, calculations, yields, spectra, and conclusions.

    Guidelines for Lab Reports

    Structure of Lab Reports


    1. Abstract: A very brief overview of the procedure and a qualitative mention of results, in about
    45 lines
    2. Introduction: Theoretical background of the technique used and the significance of the
    product you are synthesizing / isolating, plus the reaction scheme (if any)
    3. Experimental Section: List of glassware, chemicals and materials, and a description of the
    procedure carried out in the lab
    4. Results and Discussion: This is the most importance portion. Here, you should mention your
    raw data and calculations (in appropriate significant figures), discuss what they mean and
    why they are the way they are. Include percentage yield, IR spectrum and assigned peaks,
    melting point data, Rf values from TLC etc.
    5. Conclusion: A qualitative summary of results and what is to be concluded from them
    6. Post-Lab questions: Answer the questions mentioned in the Lab Manual for that particular
    experiment
    7. References: Inserted as endnotes, cited in ACS style. You may use a reference manager such
    as Mendeley or EndNote.

    In addition, the following also carry marks:


    1. Format:
    Font: Calibri or Times New Roman, 12 pt
    Alignment: Justify
    Use of fractions and appropriate symbols
    Use of passive voice i.e. instead of
    We dissolved the compound in a minimum quantity of hot solvent ,
    you should write
    The compound was dissolved in a minimum quantity of hot solvent
    2. Use of ChemDraw for figures drawing structures of compounds is more important than that of
    apparatus, unless there isnt any compound to draw
    3. Use of at least three references apart from the Lab Manual for citations
