| Objectives |
Students will get practical analytical experience in the lab by doing quantitative determinations based on basic techniques such as precipitation, titrations, light absorbance, or potentiometry.
|
| Subject |
- Quantitative gravimetric determination of nickel ions
- Quantitation of acetic acid by an acid/base titration (including the standardizing of the titrant NaOH solution with a primary standard)
- Determination of water hardness (complexometric titration with EDTA)
- Quantitation of copper ions by a redox titration (including the standardization of the titrant sodium thiosulfate with a primary standard)
- Quantitation of Fe(II) by a redox titration (including the standardization of the titrant potassium permanganate with a primary standard
- 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 nalysis of a commercially available pharmaceutical formulation by thin layer chromatography
- Quantitation of Ca by atomic absorption spectroscopy
- Quantitation of fluoride in a sample of tooth paste using a fluoride-selective electrode
