Course Objective

The objective of this course is to perform applications of commonly used instrumental techniques of chemical analysis, to interpret the experimental results and to learn to submit the acquired data as a report

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Students are expected to develop a full understanding of applications of instrumental techniques related to the lectures.
2   Students are expected to choose the proper method considering the qualitative and quantitative expects of the analyte, are expected to plan the experimental procedure and can perform real applications.
3   Students are expected to match their theoretical understanding with the experimental set up and the instruments.
4   Students are expected to solve the problems regarding the analysis.
5   Students can perform the necessary preparative applications and modifications on the sample.
