Core Practical 5 Pre Lab

CPAC 3a - Identifies hazards and assesses risks associated with these hazards, making safety adjustments as necessary, when carrying out experimental techniques and procedures

· Complete a full risk assessment prior to task

1. Include chemical hazards reactants & products plus physical hazards

2. Take account of volumes used to ensure risk assessment is appropriate

3. Take account of concentrations used to ensure risk assessment is appropriate

4. Make appropriate assessment of hazards and risks to do with the practical procedure itself

5. Reference hazcards used to plan for safety (CPAC 5b may be awarded if referenced)

CPAC 5a - Uses appropriate software and/or tools to process data, carry out research and report findings.

• Carry out suitable research to support your risk assessment

• Writes up a risk assessment in your own words specifying precautions relevant to practical being carried out

CPAC 5b - Sources of information are cited demonstrating that research has taken place, supporting planning and conclusions.

· Cite within text as necessary

· Reference Hazcards in a bibliography in such a way that the reader may retrieve the information easily

CPAC 5a - Uses appropriate software and/or tools to process data, carry out research and report findings.

· Use ICT to research temperature range of reactants and products

· Use researched data to select a temperature range to collect product over.

· Demonstrate understanding by using research to back up own work

CPAC 5b - Sources of information are cited demonstrating that research has taken place, supporting planning and conclusions.

· Cite within text as necessary

· Uses research to support choices of distillation temperature

· Reference sources in a bibliography in such a way that the reader may retrieve the information easily.
