Analytical Chemistry I and LaboratoryModule CHIMICA ANALITICA I E LABORATORIO (MOD.1)
Academic Year 2023/2024 - Teacher: Annalinda CONTINOExpected Learning Outcomes
-Knowledge and understanding: knowledge of the main chemical and phenomenological aspects relating to the study of equilibria in solution, with particular reference to the calculation of pH, solubility and optimization of titration operating conditions.
-Ability to apply knowledge and understanding: being able to develop simple and rigorous calculation approaches for the study of equilibria in solution. Development of useful knowledge and its application for carrying out quantitative determinations.
-Making judgments: allow the objective evaluation of the characteristics of the solutions related to their composition.
-Communication skills: develop and/or improve the ability to expose even complex scientific concepts by implementing the terminology involved in the study of equilibria in solution and inorganic quantitative determinations.
-Learning skills: Apply techniques and theoretical models for solving Quantitative Chemical Analysis problems.
