Course objectives
Basic laboratory course of analytical chemistry will prepare students for work in analytical laboratory and these skills can be applied in furher study. Main objectives of the course can be summarized as follows: to perform qualitative analysis, gravimetric analysis, volumetric analysis (acidimetric, redox and chelatometric). The course will help to understand basics of instrumental analysis and results evaluation.
