Learning Outcomes
Competences
Students will be able to understand, apply, and explain statistical treatment of measurement data and the basics of wet chemistry analytical methods, spectroscopy and chromatography.
Skills Knowledge
More specifically, upon completion of the course they will be able to

  • Know, understand, explain and apply statistical treatment of measurement data (k2, k3, k4)
  • Know, understand, explain and apply acid-base titrations, complexometric titrations and redox titrations (k2, k3, k4)
  • Know, understand and explain the theory of potentiometry (k2, k3, k4)
  • Apply potentiometry (k2, k3, k4)
  • Know, understand, explain and apply amperometric sensors (k2, k3, k4)
  • Know, understand, explain and apply spectroscopy (k2, k3, k4)
  • Know, understand and explain immunoassays (k2, k3, k4)
  • Know, understand and explain chromatography (k2, k3, k4)
Underlying concepts and details of fundamental tools in the analytical laboratory:

  • Apply statistical treatment of measurement data
  • Acid-base titrations, complexometric titrations, redox titrations (including calculations of titration curves, detection of end points, applications)
  • Theory of potentiometry (redox potential, electromotive force, electrodes of the first and second kind, redox electrodes, indicator and reference electrodes)
  • Applications of potentiometry (pH electrode, ion-selective electrodes, potentiometric titrations)
  • Amperometric sensors
  • Introduction to spectroscopy, instrumentation for molecular absorption spectroscopy in the UV-visible range, atomic spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy
  • Immunoassays
  • Chromatography
