Course Objective

The objective of this course is to perform experimental applications of statistical analysis, gravimetric approach and acid-base titrations, to learn to submit the acquired data as a report and to make interpretation regarding experimental results.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Students are expected to perform experimental applications regarding lectures and to strength their insight on analytical techniques
2   Students are expected to know and use the exploited technical equipment in the analytical chemistry lab in a proper manner
3   Students can choose the proper method depending on the analyte, can design the experiment and can apply the experiment
4   Students are expected to match their theoretical understanding with the experimental set up and the instruments
5   Students are expected to solve the problems regarding the analysis
6   Students can perform the necessary preparative applications and modifications on real and artificial samples
