On the subject of colleges and universities, it’s still kind of in-the-air. Colleges are all taking different approaches to the scenario.

Are titrations (or related-ish) labs the only ones we can expect? What else might there be? According to the rules, an example is "Use freezing point depression to determine molar mass of a solute" There are definitely a lot of labs with aqueous solutions that don't involve titrations suc...
