Encompasses a theoretical and practical treatment of quantitative analytical chemistry. Methods for sample preparation, digestion of samples and separation of sample constituents are surveyed. Classical methods of analysis (gravimetric and titrimetric) are studied in detail throughout this unit. Students are introduced to instrumental methods of analysis through a study of selected techniques (ultraviolet-visible spectrometry, atomic absorption spectrometry, potentiometry, gas chromatography and liquid chromatography). The laboratory component provides experience in the analysis of real and relevant environmental samples.
