Learning Objectives - Lesson
Knowledge acquired:
The course deals with the general basis of analytical chemistry in order to understand the mechanisms, the errors and the problems connected with the classical volumetric quantitative analysis. The principal instrumental methods (optical and electrochemical methods, mass spectrometry, separation techniques, such as chromatography, electrophoresis, field flow fractionation) are discussed.
Acquisition of expertise in analytical chemistry. Ability to design and carry out an analytical procedure from the sampling step, the choice of the instrumental analysis, to the statistical evaluation of the analytical data.
