CHM 230 - ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY I

Institution:

Kutztown University of Pennsylvania

Subject:

Chemistry

Description:

Analytical chemistry involves methods and techniques for determining the structure and composition of matter. Students in Analytical Chemistry I will attack problems of a chemical nature by learning a series of techniques that allow them to identify and quantify various components in samples. Some of the techniques involve chemical fundamentals such as stoichiometry, acid-base equilibria, and careful measurement techniques while others involve sophisticated chemical instrumentation. The lecture portion of the course will uncover the theory underlying these techniques, while the laboratory will provide an opportunity for students to address real-world analytical problems, develop their measurement skills, and gain valuable experience using analytical techniques commonly encountered in research and industry. The methods covered in this class include: gravimetric analysis, volumetric analysis (acid-base titrations), UV/V is spectrophotometry, potentiometry, and gas and liquid chromatography.
