Skills+Station+Lab

Introduction: In this lab, there was a total of eight stations that we needed to go around to and take measurements. These measurements included, using a triple beam balance, reading the meniscus of a graduated cylinder and we practiced with the application Logger Pro, by testing our hand temperature and water. All these excersices is designed to help us improve and practice out lab skills.

Conclusion: This lab was really interesting because I developed a variety of skills. I learned about all these uses with the Vernier Probe and sharpened my lab skills in many ways. It refreshed my memory about the meniscus, mass, and volume. The lab was slightly challenging due to the number of stations and the variety of activities there were. I was successful in remembering a lot of things from last year for measurement and learning how to use the Vernier probe. It was a good process of documentation and hands on experiences. I had trouble with the huge tub of water because I kept on spilling a lot of it and making a huge mess. Luckily, I cleaned it up afterward, but my measurement was probably inaccurate. However, I learned how to measure something that was before "unmeasureable" by separating it into smaller pieces and adding them together.
