Chapter 41: Problem 3

Make website citations. Use a search engine (p. 397) to find an informative website that covers each of the following: (a) The use of SI units. (b) Description of a Diels-Alder reaction. (c) Melting point determination. Indicate how you would cite each website at the end of an essay (follow your department's guidelines or use those in this chapter).

Short Answer

Expert verified
The short answer is website citation as per given guidelines. The three websites will be cited differently depending on the chosen style (MLA, APA, Chicago etc.) and will include the necessary details such as the author's name, the title of the webpage, the name of the website, the date of publication, and the URL. Each citation will be tailored based on the information available from the website.

Step by step solution

01

Research the Topics

Using a search engine, find reliable and informative websites that provide detailed information on the three topics. Make sure to check if the website's information is accurate, reliable, and up-to-date.
02

Evaluate the Website

Consider the credibility of the websites selected. Check for the author's credentials and the website's reputation before selecting it as a source of information for your essay.
03

Create the Citations

After selecting the informative websites, cite each one according to your department's guidelines or the ones provided in the exercise. Ordinarily, in an MLA style citation, the format is: 'Author Last name, First name. 'Title of the Web Page'. Name of the Website, Date of Publication, URL.'

Most popular questions from this chapter

Compare the Harvard and Vancouver methods of citation. Pair up with a partner in your class. Each person should then pick one of the two main methods of citation and consider its pros and cons independently. Meet together and compare your lists. Given the choice, which method would you choose for: (a) a handwritten essay; (b) a word-processed review; (c) an article in an academic journal, and why?

Explore different methods of citing references. Go to your library and seek out the journal area for chemistry. Choose three different journals in your subject area and from a recent edition write down how they would print a typical citation for a multi-author journal paper in the 'references' or 'literature cited' section. Where used, indicate italicised text with normal underline and bold text with wavy underline. Pay attention to punctuation. Compare these methods with each other, with the methods recommended on pp. 382-384 of this book and with the recommendations your department or your course handbook makes. Are they all the same?
