    Description
    course with all lab hours offered in-person. This course covers the theory and practice of chemical analysis techniques in a quantitative manner. Detailed discussion and analysis of simple and complex acid-base equilibria, and complex buffer systems, are presented, as related solubility problems, complex metal-ligand solution equilibria, and oxidation-reduction equilibria. The laboratory emphasizes the techniques for quantitative chemical analysis of specific elements and compounds in complex mixtures. These techniques include gravimetric, volumetric, potentiometric and spectroscopic methods, as well as chemical separation methods. Theoretical foundations of statistical treatment of chemical data generated from quantitative analysis results are presented.
