DETERMINATION OF NITROGEN AND PHOSPHATE CONCENTRATIONS IN WATER SAMPLES

DETERMINATION OF NITROGEN AND PHOSPHATE CONCENTRATIONS IN WATER SAMPLES FORMAL LAB REPORT GUIDELINES: Written in 3rd person past tense (including procedures for all 3 ions), all Tables numbered/titled, all Figures numbered/titled and label all data points (you may hand write this info on your micro lab figures), use correct significant figures, units & any RAD data, show any equation used only 1 time with only 1 example (do not show multiple examples of any calculations), have a well thought out discussion of your specific ion results & how they compare to other student data (section/course) including trends observed, briefly discuss any observed trend for the other ions data, your Conclusion Statement will be a short summary statement regarding final results/conclusion for your specific ion relevant to standards calibration curve and average water sample data (yours and class/section) with RAD. -References: In your formal lab report you need to have five (5) sources of reference. This will include your lab manual, and it's up to you to find 4 other sources to use. Resources NOT allowed: Wikipedia, about.com, websites (unless they are databases), college websites, dictionaries and thesauruses. Please keep in mind that data point 2 was removed from the graph and the scanned page with the data points but you can find it's value in a picture I'll upload. The point was removed because it was too off from the line.
