CommunicationCC:

Effective communication was crucial in the titration lab, especially working with a partner. To stay on the same track my partner, Tanner and I had to constantly talk to one another to ensure we both knew our responsibilities and handled data correctly. In the titration experiment, accuracy were precision essential, and to be successful in those components my partener and I both had to agree on what steps to take and how precise and accurate each others data and observations were. It was important to clearly and accurately convey information such as the volume of solution was added, an the observed color changed, and the corresponding data readings. Any misunderstandings or lack of communication could’ve resulted in inaccurate results, which could have undermined the whole experiment. I feel throughout the three titrations we did our communication came more fluently and we were on the same page. This lead to our 2nd and 3rd titration going very well opposed to our 1st one as we communicated the mistakes made in titration 1. For example, in the first titration our end result was a very dark pink solution as we knew that we rushed the amount of NaOH we added. This lead us to use the full drops and half drops earlier in titration 2 and 3, and by communicating when to stop with each other our solution colour turned out much better. Overall, good communication among partners encourages collaboration, allowing for the exchange of ideas and observations. Communication served as the foundation for success in our titration lab and ensuring accurate results and a valuable learning experience.
