Abstract
An informative abstract summarizes the principal findings of the report in a single paragraph (usually 2-6 sentences). The
ideal abstract will briefly indicate the experimental plan used in the research, summarize the principal findings and point
out major conclusions.

1. INTRODUCTION

This section is an introduction to the lab objectives and its practical uses. It should normally be 2 to 3
paragraphs. The primary functions are to capture the interest of the reader and describe the objectives of this
laboratory exercise. The section needs to introduce the lab function and background. Any new concepts and
terminology need to be given as well. Last should be the objectives of the lab. Include what should be
accomplished or learned through performing this experiment.

2. EXPERIMENTAL

This section contains a complete description of your procedure. Omit minor details such as cleaning a crucible
first or rinsing a buret or zeroing a balance. Do not simply write a numbered list of instructions. Instead, the
procedure is described as a narrative of what was done; this is generally written in third person, passive voice,
paste tense, e.g., “Weighed amounts of copper and sulphur were heated to red-hot in a porcelain crucible over a
Bunsen burner”.
Enough details should be given in this section so that any trained chemist can repeat your procedure and obtain
comparable results. Thus,
 All compounds and amounts must be identified. Purity and concentration of reagents should also be reported
where relevant.
 Apparatus should be described only if not standard. Commercially available instruments need not be
described.
 All procedures should be described.
 All quantities, measurements and observations of significance must be included.

3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

In this section, all results from the experiment are provided. After all results have been provided, they are
analysed ('discussed') to explain what the data entails.
