CHM 311 - Analytical Chemistry I

1 course unit

Data analysis, chemical equilibria, classical methods of analysis, and electroanalytical chemistry are explored. Data analysis and statistics, including error propagation, confidence intervals, and analytical calibration methods are examined. Acid-base, oxidation-reduction, complex and multiple simultaneous equilibria are applied to analytical problems. Classical analytical methods, such as gravimetric and volumetric analysis, as well as electrochemical methods (ion selective electrodes, potentiometry, and voltammetry) are also discussed. Laboratory work involves the application of a variety of these methods to quantitative chemical analysis and experimental design and implementation. Three hours of lecture and one three hour laboratory per week.
