Hi

It is my first post

.

I'm not teacher but I would like to share my opinion and wait for teacher's correction

1. I think we never use "on" before tomorrow.
2. I'd say "of" instead of "for" and without "on"
3. I think it is correct but without "on" (maybe it is wrong too)
4. I'm not sure but "slate" is not common and anything is wrong in this sentences. (I may be wrong)

Thank you

1. Konul is correct.
2. Both "of" and "for" are correct.
You can either replace "on" with "the" (...is the 3rd...) or add "the"
after "on" (...is on the 3rd...)
3. Either replace "product" with "project" (...of the project is...) or write it
as "finished product" or "final product"
You can either replace "on" with "the" (...is the 3rd...) or add "the"
after "on" (...is on the 3rd...)
4. "slated" is fine (Konul: you are correct that slated is not very
common in most contexts, but, when talking about a project,
"slated" is often used in lieu of "scheduled.")
"done" is fine, but it will sound more professional if you use
"completed."
You can either replace "on" with "the" (...is the 3rd...) or add "the"
after "on" (...is on the 3rd...)
I hope this helps!

1. The project is due on tomorrow.
2. The due date for the project is on the 3rd of April.
3. The due date of the product is on the 3rd of April. -- I would agree with other post, use "final" or "finished" if using the word "product.
4. The project is slated to be done on the 3rd of April.

Note that "is slated to be done" is a completely difference emphasis from the first three examples. Examples, 1, 2, and 3, are expressing when a project is due to be finished from the point of view of the requestor of the project, or a given requirement. "Is slated to be done" is from the perspective of the person working on the project, this is stating that the project is scheduled or in process to be finished by such date, it does not mean that it is necessarily due on that same date. The project could be due on April 2nd or April 10th and still be slated to be done on the 3rd. Slated is also flexible (could change), where as due is firm. I just wanted to point that out because it is not the same meaning.
