A Lab Dish and a Pipette Under a Purple Diamond
A gloved hand holds a glass dish while a pipette drops a liquid into it, in the lower right corner of this cover. Above it, a deep purple diamond with white edges holds the title Chemistry Assignment. Lilac panels give the page a modern, colourful look. It suits chemistry, biochemistry and lab science coursework.
Purple Diamond, Lilac Panel and Lab Photo
The page is 8.5 x 11 inches, portrait, one page. The EDITION ONE label sits at the top left, and HEADLINE LOREM IPSUM at the top right. The lilac panel on the left carries a vertical line of placeholder text.
Title, Year and By Line
20XX is in white above Chemistry in lilac, with Assignment in white and By: Name Surname underlined in lilac. Use the vertical text for the course and the headline label for the experiment or topic. The lab photo can be replaced with a picture of your own set up, with the permission of your lab.

Reporting a Lab Experiment
A lab report normally has an aim, a method, results, a discussion and a conclusion. Include units and uncertainties, and list safety measures. This template is a cover only and gives no laboratory instructions.
Safety and Photos
If you use a photograph from your own lab, check that people shown wear proper protective equipment. A safe image reflects good practice.
Printing the Purple Chemistry Cover
Print in colour on 120 gsm paper. Purple can print bluish on some printers, so test a copy.
Step by Step Editing of the Chemistry Purple Design
- On the chemistry purple design, click the main headline and type your own words, keeping a similar length.
- Retype every name, date and contact line on the chemistry purple design, checking each against a trusted source.
- Search the chemistry purple design for the words Lorem and Company so that no placeholder remains.
- Click any logo or photo on the chemistry purple design, choose Replace Image and resize the new picture to fit.
- Zoom the chemistry purple design to full size and read each line aloud before you save it.
- Keep a clean master of the chemistry purple design without private details, so later versions start tidy.
Writing Chemical Formulae Properly
Use subscripts for atom counts and superscripts for charges. Balance every equation and state conditions such as temperature. Tidy notation is part of the marks in chemistry.
Recording Observations Honestly
Write down what you saw, not what you expected. Unexpected results can be the most interesting part of a report if you explain them.
Keeping Lab Records Tidy
Date every entry and write in ink in a bound book. Record quantities, timings and observations as you go. Neat lab records save time when you write the report and satisfy lab safety rules.
