CHE-09 Bachelor’s Degree Programme (B.Sc.) Spectroscopy School of Sciences Indira Gandhi National Open University New Delhi, 110068 2005-06 1 Dear Student, We hope, you are familiar with the system of evaluation to be followed for the Bachelor's Degree Programme. As this stage you may probably like to re-read the section on assignments in the Programme Guide that we sent you after your enrolment. A weightage of 30 percent, as you are aware, has been earmarked for continuous evaluation, which would consist of two tutor-marked assignments for this course. These assignments are provided in this booklet. Assignment-01 is based on Blocks 1 and 2 whereas Assignment-02 is based on Blocks 3 and 4. Instructions for Formatting Your Assignments Before attempting the assignments, please read the following instructions carefully. 1. On top of the first page of your answer sheet, please write the details exactly in the following format: Enrolment No : ..........................………… Name : .......................……………. Address : ........................………… …………………………… …………………………… Course Code : …..........................………… …..........................………… Course Title : …..........................………… …..........................………… Assignment No. : …..........................………… Study Centre : …..........................………… Date : …..........................………… (Name and Code) PLEASE FOLLOW THE ABOVE FORMAT STRICTLY TO FACILITATE EVALUATION AND TO AVOID DELAY. 2. Use only foolscap size writing paper (but not of very thin variety) for writing your answers. 3. Leave 4 cm margin on the left, top and bottom of your answer sheet. 4. Your answers should be precise. 5. While writing answers, clearly indicate the Question No. and part of the question being solved. Assignment No. Assignment – 1 (TMA) Assignment – 2 (TMA) Submission Where to Send 6 weeks after receiving the print coordinator of your study material with assignments. centre 10 weeks after receiving the print coordinator of your study material with assignments. centre 6. We strongly suggest that you should retain a copy of your assignment responses. Wishing you all good luck. 2 Assignment - 01 Tutor Marked Assignment Biochemistry Elective Course in Chemistry and Life Sciences Course Code : CHE-09 Assignment Code : CHE-09/TMA-01/2005-06 Maximum Marks: 100 Answer all the questions given below. 1.
