2What 181L is
• Thinking, Understanding, Investigating, Evaluating
• Not arrive, assembly line, leave
• Manual pp. ix & xi should help
• Not sync’ed with most lecture sections, but internally coherent & mutually reinforcing
Expectations• Read the lab manual BEFORE lab
• Be ON TIME to class
• PARTICIPATE, ASK QUESTIONS
• Complete the assignments (online, etc)
• Think, evaluate, investigate, understand
• No phones, or zero on your quiz
3
Attendance
• Absences must be excused through Asya Roberts in BSE 109
• Arriving late/leaving early is absent
• Make-up labs that same week, permission from Asya
• Miss 2 labs and you should drop, or we’ll do it
4
E-mail/Office hours• Friday 10-11 @Koffler 209
• Notify me via email if you plan to come or I will not be there
• All emails received by Monday night each week will be answered by Tuesday afternoon

From The Secret of Scent, Luca Turin p.28
When a journalist asked the great physicist Richard Feynman what single sentence would best encapsulate all science so far if it were to be the sole surviving scrap of all we knew, he replied, “The world is made of atoms.”

16Atoms: They’re how life works
• Carbs: C, H, O
• DNA, RNA: C, H, N, O, P, [Mg++]
• Protein: C, H, N, O, (S), (P), [traces]
• Membranes: C, H, N, O, P, (S)
What cannot be done with assemblages of these atoms* cannot be done by living organisms, nor their
cells, nor their spit, etc.
*OK, fine, there’s the occasional role for Ca++, etc.
17Who am I?• At birth, # protons = # electrons
• Atoms seek completion, which means outermost electron set = 8 (hydrogen, helium it’s just 2)

25“Salting out”
• It’s a real term; used to refer to a situation where the addition of salt (portable charges) alters the solubility of other molecules in water
• Why should this be?
26Evaporation• First things first--what is it? What’s going on in terms of
molecules
• Experiment: Ethanol and water on your arm: which is cooler & why?
• Prediction: based on molecular weight, which should evaporate more quickly--H2O (2 x 1 + 1 x 16) or CH3CH2OH (5
x 1; 2 x 12; 1 x 16)
• If not, why not?
• Salt in your sweat
• What benefit might there be to adding NaCl to water that you are intending to evaporate?
27Clean up!
• Oil waste in the hood
• ethanol waste in the sink
• anything too messy wadded up and discarded
28What’s vocabulary homework?
• EITHER both versions of the crossword exercise
• OR VocabuWary with a better than threshold score
• For “Atoms & Molecules”, F12, that’s 60,000
• Errors count off. Slowness counts off.
