Course Description
The course is an introduction to the principles of qualitative and quantitative chemical
analysis with emphasis on classical methods. It is designed to give the fundamental knowledge of
analytical chemistry and the ability of application of this knowledge and practical skills for the
solution of theoretical and practical problems including educational activities. Lectures will stress
the chemical equilibria of acid-base and oxidation-reduction systems, metal ion complexes and
solubility, and their relationship to chemical analysis.
The laboratory practice covers commonly used classical chemical analytical techniques:
gravimetry, titrimetry, introductory UV-visible spectroscopy. The main aim of a laboratory course
is to develop good skills for the performance of analytical procedures. Students also extend their
knowledge of analysis of data and their statistical evaluation. The laboratory includes one research
project.
