Quantitative Analysis
Course Information and Lecture Outline
Philosophy of Quantitative Analysis
Quantitative Analysis deals with laboratory methods to measure the
concentration of the components of a sample. The course includes "wet
methods" ( volumetric and gravimetric determinations) and potentiometric
methods. The experiments chosen involve environmental and everyday
substances.
Materials that you will need for the course:
Textbook: Fundamentals of Analytical Chemistry by Douglas Skoog, Donald
West, James Holler, and Stanley Crouch, 8th Edition. The
ISBN is 0-03-035523-0.
(Beware of other editions and beware of yet another book with a similar title by the
same authors! )
Calculator: a calculator capable of doing logarithms is a must;
statistical calculations are desireable. You will need your calculator in
lecture on most days.
Lab: A composition notebook with bound pages; YOU DO NOT NEED to buy an
expensive one with carbon pages or numbered pages; cheap is better!
Eye protection: Visor-Gogs or glasses from the Chemistry Club sales are
acceptable; others need to be approved by Dr. Rublein. Please note that
the Visor-Gogs have better protection from splashes from the side and the
brow-bar keeps splashes from dripping down on your face or eyes.
Dishwashing gloves are recommended.
