CH 211 ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY w/LAB
This course will cover the major theories of classical analytical chemistry such as equilibrium, solubility, complexion formation, redox systems, acid-base and buffered systems, as well as the organic and inorganic reactions pertinent to common analytical procedures. These theories are used in various analytical methods such as titrations, precipitation, gravimetric methods, complex formation and color metric methods. The course will also examine statistical methods of evaluation and errors in chemical analysis. Chemical analysis in a modern laboratory is often conducted with instrumentation. A survey of the different types of instruments and their applications is conducted. Methods included are spectroscopic methods (UV-VIS, IR, NMR, MS, AA, etc.); chromatographic methods (GC, HPLC, etc.) and other methods (electron microscopy, particle analysis, electrophoresis, polarographic and other electrochemical methods, and radiochemical methods). These instrumental methods are studied with an emphasis on how problems are solved. Many industrial processes and environmental site monitoring devices use the same principles as the modern analytical instruments in the chemical laboratories. These field equipment and process control devices are reviewed in this course. Lecture: 3 hours per week. Lab: 3 hours per week. 4 Credits Prerequisite: CH120
