CONSIDERATIONS FOR DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS SECTION
As you write your discussion and conclusions paragraphs in your lab notebook, here are some tips and questions you should be answering. (This is in addition to the "Guidelines for a good discussion and conclusion" handout provided to you at your first lab class.)
· Explain in your own words how you were able to determine the concentration of reactants at equilibrium? Hint: Discuss the ICE table and how it was used .
· In utilizing your data to explain this experiment, consider and discuss the process by which all data were collected (including graphs) .
· For the constant determined at the end, what does the value mean in regard to greater than or less than one, as explained in the text?
Note: As this is an equilibrium experiment, please make sure to explain all concepts in terms of equilibrium.
