CHBE 263 Introduction to Chemical and Biological Engineering Laboratory Practice


September 2019

Course Description:

The CHBE 263 laboratory course introduces you to Chemical and Biological Engineering laboratory
practice. This laboratory provides experimental demonstration of the material covered in the second-
year physical, inorganic and organic chemistry lecture courses. The aim of this laboratory is for you
to study some of the concepts described in the lectures, understand the relationships between
mathematical models and real behaviour, develop experimental skills and techniques, develop
simple experimental design skills and technical writing skills.

Lab Hours and Location:

CHBE 263 two-hour lab sessions are held on Mondays or Wednesdays. All lab stations are
located in Rooms 4.04 and 4.06 of the Chemical and Biological Engineering (CHBE) building,
unless otherwise noted in the schedule.

Laboratory Experiments and Schedule:

Each group will complete a lab activity/workshop and three experiments.


The class is divided into groups of 3 to 4 students at the beginning of the term. Each group is
assigned a group number; this number must be included on all documents submitted during the
term. Refer to the website for details on groups and lab schedule.
The schedule provided on the course website shows which experiment is allocated to a group in a
given experimental session. All experiments in the laboratory will be carried out according to the
laboratory schedule and groups assigned. Students are not normally allowed to change their lab
partners during the term.

ATTENDANCE in this laboratory course is mandatory! If you fail to attend any assigned
experiment, you will be given zero marks for that experiment. In case of illness, the instructor
will require written proof from the student’s doctor for confirmation. If this occurs, please see the
instructor as early as possible for rescheduling the missed experiment. Do not wait until the last
week of the term to reschedule a missed lab.

Credit Value: 1

Learning Objectives:

At the end of the semester, the successful CHBE 263 student should be able to:
 conduct experiments in a scientific and organized manner;
 design simple experiments;
 collect and record experimental observations and data in a clear and concise manner;
 analyse data, and carry out error and statistical analyses using the Teaching Laboratory Data
Management (TLDM) System individually;
 organize, display and interpret data obtained in experiments;
 demonstrate an understanding of relationships between mathematical models and real
behaviour;
 demonstrate an understanding of the material covered in each experiment/workshop through
written assignment or short technical summary ;
 complete a group short technical summary based on data collected and calculations performed
as a group;
 work effectively in a group environment, both inside and outside of the laboratory;
 evaluate and constructively criticize co-workers through peer evaluations.

Course Evaluation:

Grading is mainly based on pre-lab, assignments, technical summaries, peer evaluation and the
end of the term exam.
