Chemistry LabOnline College Course
A real chemistry lab you can run at home — six graded experiments, full reports, zero lab fees.
What You'll Learn
A full semester of chemistry lab — completed at your own pace, with no deadlines or fixed class times.
What You'll Be Able to Do
- Describe and explain the structure and physical properties of matter, applying the concepts of mass, volume, and density through direct measurement and analysis
- Solve quantitative problems involving the mole concept and Avogadro's number, converting between mass, moles, and number of particles using molar mass
- Determine the empirical formula of a compound from experimental mass data, and solve stoichiometric problems, including those involving the law of definite proportions
- Apply the principles of thermodynamics to laboratory problems involving heat transfer, energy conservation, and the measurement of heat flow through calorimetry
- Examine and apply separation techniques such as chromatography, calculating and interpreting Rf values to perform qualitative analysis of mixtures
- Classify acids and bases and analyze acid–base titrations, identifying the equivalence point and determining pKa values from titration-curve data
- Perform and analyze various laboratory activities related to chemistry, including accurate measurement, data collection, and the use of laboratory tools and instrumentation
- Apply scientific methodology, in all its explicit steps, to solve complex problems that are part of the laboratory activities, and evaluate experimental results to identify sources of error and uncertainty
- Communicate experimental findings through formal laboratory reporting, presenting data, calculations, and conclusions clearly and accurately
