Course name:
Laboratory Work in Analytical Chemistry 1

Academic year:

2024/2025.

Attendance requirements:

There are no requirements.

ECTS:

5

Study level:

basic academic studies, integrated basic and graduate academic studies

Study programs:

Environmental Chemistry: 1. year, summer semester, compulsory course

Chemical Education: 1. year, summer semester, compulsory course

Teacher:

Jelena Đ. Trifković, Ph.D.
full professor, Faculty of Chemistry, Studentski trg 12-16, Beograd

Assistant:

Mihajlo V. Jakanovski
research assistant, Innovation center, Studentski trg 12-16, Beograd

Hours of instruction:

Weekly: six hours of labwork (0+0+6)

Goals:

The goal of this course is to help students acquire practical knowledge of the classical analysis of inorganic substances through individual work and to introduce students to the basic separation methods (extraction and chromatography) and very sensitive "spot-test" reactions.

Outcome:

Within this course the student should develop basic skills necessary for independent laboratory work. While solving individual experimental problems, he should also apply the knowledge he has acquired in the field of acid-base, precipitation, and redox equilibria as well as the equilibria in the solutions of coordination compounds and the separation methods (extraction and chromatography).

Teaching methods:

Experimental work.
