| Recommended semester: 4th -7th semester |
| Scope and form: Laboratory exercises(seven 2-days exercises on 2-person team). |
| Evaluation: Approval of exercises
|
| Examination: Pass/fail |
| Previous course: C2146 / 21455 |
| Compulsory: C2107 / 21245 / 26300.C8860 / 56060 / C8859 / 56059 |
| Prerequisites: C2140 / 21250 / 26310 or comparative analytical chemical theoretical prerequisites |
| No credit points with: C2146 / 21455 |
| Participant limitation: Max. 20 |
| Aim: To teach the student the essential elements in the use of the most commonly employed analytical chemical instrumental methods and to enable the student - with this practical experience - to make an intelligent choice among existing instruments for a given assignment. To offer the student insight in methods for sampling and pre-preparation of sample material. To give basis for critical evaluation of the results obtained. The exercises will comprise assays which are typical for a modern analytical chemical laboratory |
| Contents: Optical methods: UV / VIS-spectrophotometry. Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (flame, graphite oven and hydride generation). Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). Electrochemical methods: Potentiometry (ion selective electrodes) and potentiometric stripping analysis. Liquid-liquid chromatography (HPLC). Automated analysis (Flow Injection Analysis). Chemometrics. Sample preparation (digestion, extraction), sample evaluation standard-addition, statistics and quality control. Beside offering practical hand-on experience with various analytical techniques, an integral part of the course aims at providing the student with a critical position to the analytical results obtained. |
Remarks: Important aspects of the curriculum in the theoretical course C2140/21250/26310 Instrumental Analysis are experimentally illustrated.
The experimental course thus requires the theoretical basis from course 26310 (or a comparative course). |
