1. Introduction. Definition of analytical chemistry. Basic terms (proof, identification, determination, characterization). Selective and specific reactions, analytical methods based on immunochemical and enzymatic reactions. Units for expression of content (concentration) of substances in analyzed samples and in reagent solutions (percentage, molar concentration). Preparation of solutions.
2. Analytical process - a basic plan.
3. Qualitative analysis. Identification of inorganic compounds (identification of cations and anions).
4. Identification of organic compound (identification of molecules), elemental analysis, mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance).
5. Sampling. Obtaining a representative sample. Basic differences in sampling of solid liquid and gaseous samples.
6. Dissolution and decomposition. Nondestructive analytical methods (activation analysis). Destructive analytical methods. Sample dissolution and decomposition (in acids, by melting, mineralization or pyrolysis).
7. Elimination of interferents (masking or separation methods). The nature of separation process (distribution ratio, distribution constant). Separation by precipitation. Extraction. Ion-exchange separations (cation-exchange resin, anion-exchange resin).
8. Measurement of analytical property - a survey of analytical methods (gravimetric methods, volumetric methods, electroanalytical methods, optical methods, separation methods) ant their general characterization. Chemical reactions, basic chemical equilibria.
9. Gravimetric analysis. Basic steps (sample preparation, precipitation -conditions for quantitative precipitation, errors in precipitations, filtration, drying and ignition of precipitates, weighing of precipitates). Gravimetric calculations. Weighing, types of (analytical) balances.
10.Volumetric analysis. Definition of some terms (standard solution, direct and indirect titration, equivalence point, end point, titration curve). Preparation of standard solutions (primary standards, secondary standards).Volumetric calculations. Measurement of volume.
11. Individual volumetric methods. Precipitation titrations (argentometry, standard solutions, indicators, examples of determination). Acid-base titrations (standard solutions, indicators, difference in titration of strong and weak acids and bases, titration curve, selection of indicator). Complex-formation titrations (titration with EDTA, indicators, effect of pH and complexity constant value).
