Please refer to the “title” section <strong>be</strong>low.Your name and the names of any lab partners.Your instructor's name.The date the report is due.<strong>In</strong>troductionThings to include in <strong>you</strong>r introduction:What chemical reaction did we perform in <strong>this</strong> lab? What are the reactants and products?What was the purpose of doing <strong>this</strong> lab? What is the purpose of stoichiometry?Summarize how we did the baking soda and vinegar lab.Summarize how <strong>you</strong> found out how much baking soda to start off with.Summarize how <strong>you</strong> found out how much sodium acetate <strong>you</strong> are expected to get.MaterialsList everything needed to complete <strong>you</strong>r experiment. Be as specific as possible.Ex: 20 grams of baking soda (not just baking soda)MethodsDescri<strong>be</strong> the steps <strong>you</strong> completed during <strong>you</strong>r investigation. This is <strong>you</strong>r procedure. Be sufficiently detailed that anyonecould read <strong>this</strong> section and duplicate <strong>you</strong>r experiment. Write it as if <strong>you</strong> were giving direction for someone else to do thelab. Write <strong>you</strong>r method in paragraph form.
