CHEMICAL ANALYSIS

CHE2CAN

2019

Credit points: 15

Subject outline

Students are introduced to some advanced methods of chemical analysis that are commonly used in pharmaceutical and other applications. These include quantitative and qualitative classical and electrochemical methods, as well as some advanced applications of spectroscopy and chromatography. Detailed consideration is given to the limitations, interferences and problems that can be associated with the various analytical techniques. The principles underlying the treatment and preparation of samples are introduced. The focus is on applications to pharmaceutical analysis applications.

Graduate capabilities & intended learning outcomes

01. Explain the chemical principles that underlie chemical analytical methods.

Activities:
Taught in lectures, tutorials, practice problems from text. Questions in the workshops probes understanding of functional group chemistry and physio- chemical properties.

02. Select appropriate analytical techniques for real-world applications from a knowledge of the major strengths and weaknesses of various analytical techniques.

Activities:
Taught in lectures, tutorials, practice problems from text and online. Students construct logical arguments based on their knowledge of chemistry and the various analytical methods.

03. Interpret the output from spectroscopic methods to determine or predict chemical structure and complex chemical interactions.

Activities:
Taught in lectures, tutorials, practical workshops, practice problems from text and online. Sstudents use knowledge of spectroscopy to identify major structural features in molecules.

04. Recognise and assess the limitations and possible errors associated with various analysis techniques through the interpretation of numerical results.

Activities:
Taught in lectures, tutorials, practical workshops, practice problems from text and online.
