| Course contents : | Chemical methods of analysis. Reactions in solution in terms of particles exchange (protons, ligands, electrons), of acceptor-donors couples, conditional constants, distribution functions. Prediction of the reaction path (direction, extent) : acid-bases, complexation, oxydoreduction, precipitation. Reasoned analytical applications: identification, separation and quantification of the elements (gravimetry, titrimetry). Exchanges between two phases; liquid-liquid extraction ; separation. Concepts of chromatographies, gas chromatography. |
|
| Course objective : | To present with some details, the most current methods of analysis, based on chemical and physical processes. Within the framework of the chemical methods, the mainly developed aspect is quantitative analysis with an emphasis on the concept of precision. Parts also of this course are the liquid-liquid extraction and as corollary, the methods of chromatographic analysis. |
|
| Prerequisites : | Good knowledge of the basic concepts of the course of generalchemistry |
|
| Workshops : | See below |
|
| Organization : | Theoretical course: 30 H in the 1st semester; Laboratory work: 60 H in the second semester: titrimetry, colorimetry, gravimetry, polarography. Rehearsals: at the request of the students, rehearsals are organized to improve the understanding of the various calculation methods seen within the course: pH, complexometric titrations, oxydoreduction potentials, Pourbaix diagrams, evaluation of precision etc... |
|
| Written notes : | - Notes were written and are available for the whole course. - These notes are accompanied with a booklet of exercises. - There is also a booklet for the laboratory work.
Reference work: the students can obtain additional information, in particular in the excellent book: ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY by SKOOG, WEST and HOLLER |
|
| Assessment : | The evaluation includes: 1) an interrogation with possible exemption (in January), (written interrogation: exercises + theory) 2) a general examination in June (one hour of written preparation followed by an oral defense).
The distribution of the scores on the final score is as follows: - 70 % for the oral examination, 30% for the laboratory work.
Note: If the score of the oral examination is below 10, the results of the laboratory work are not taken into account. |
