Department Chemical Technology Course Title Skills of Analytical Chemistry Prerequisite Spectrometric methods of analysis Semester Course Description: Credit Hours (hrs/week)
• Statistical analysis of chemical results.
(hour/week General Goal: The course aims at training the student in the fieldwork by taking samples then analyzing them in the lab using all the methods he has studied before in previous courses and in particular advanced instruments then, write reports about these experiments in the form of a small research project and discuss it. Behavioral Objectives: The study of this course enables the student to:
• Learn the methods of research in the chemical literature (literature surveys).
• Learn the methods of sampling and sample preparation.
• Learn how to write a scientific report. • Design chemical experiments.
