Your references must conform to the style described in the ACS Style Guide which is available in the reference room of the Hamersley Library, in the writing intensive course resource center or on the shelf in the organic lab.. Your paper may NOT consist entirely of web references. You must have references from other library sources. You should use Chem Abstracts or other library databases to find information from the scientific literature. Scientific news publications such as C& E News or Science News would be acceptable references. The paper is due (uploaded to Moodle) by 5 pm on the day listed as the due date for your group for this assignment.. Late papers will not be accepted. This assignment is worth a total of 30 points.
