Competences |
| Students will be able to perform and understand fundamental analytical analysis experiments.
|
|
| Skills |
Knowledge |
| More specifically, upon completion of the course, they will be able to:
- Carry out gravimetric analysis (k2, k3, k4)
- Carry out titrations manually and with titrators (k2, k3, k4)
- Quantify analytes using spectroscopy (k2, k3, k4)
- Carry out simple chromatographic separations (k2, k3, k4)
- Report their results in a protocol in a scientific writing style (k4, k5)
|
The course is divided into nine consecutive sections with the following experiments:
- Quantitative gravimetric determination of nickel ions
- Quantitation of acetic acid by an acid/base titration
- Determination of water hardness (complexometric titration with EDTA)
- Determination of bismuth ions (complexometric titration with EDTA)
- Quantitation of copper ions by redox titration
- Quantitation of Fe(II) by redox titration
- Quantitation of chloride by titration with silver nitrate using a potentiometric end point detection
- Quantitation of total Fe in a surface water sample after derivatization with a color reagent followed by photometric analysis
- Semi-quantitative analysis of a commercially available pharmaceutical formulation by thin layer chromatography
