| 529-0011-04L | Practical Course General Chemistry  Latest online enrolment is 18.09.2023. Information about the practical course will be given on the first day. | 8 credits | 12P | M. Bezdek, D. Dirin, E. C. Meister, T. Segawa, A. Yakimov | ||||||||||||||||||||
| Abstract | Qualitative analysis (determination of cations and anions), acid-base-equilibria (pH- values, titrations, buffer), precipitation equilibria (gravimetry, potentiometry, conductivity), redoxreactions (syntheses, redox-titrations, galvanic elements), metal complexes (syntheses, complexometric titration). Analysis of measured data, vapour pressure, conductivity, calorimetry, solubility. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Learning objective | Qualitative analysis (simple cation and anion separation process, determination of cations and anions), acid-base-equilibria (strengths of acids and bases, pH- and pKa-values, titrations, buffer systems, Kjeldahl determination), precipitation equilibria (gravimetry, potentiometry, conductivity), oxidation state and redox behaviour (syntheses), redox-titrations, galvanic elements), metal complexes (syntheses of complexes, ligand exchange reactions, complexometric titration) analysis of measured values (measuring error, average value, error analysis), states of aggregation (vapour pressure), characteristics of electrolytes (conductivity measurements), thermodynamics (calorimetry, solubility). | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Content | The general aim for the students of the practical course in general chemistry is an introduction in the scientific work and to get familiar with simple experimental procedures in a chemical laboratory. In general, first experiences with the principal reaction behaviour of a variety of different substances will be made. The chemical characteristics of these will be elucidated by a series of quantitative experiments alongside with the corresponding qualitative analyses. In order to get an overview of classes of substances as well as some general phenomena in chemistry suitable experiments have been chosen. In the second part of the practical course, i.e. physical chemistry, the behaviour of substances in their states of aggregation as well as changes of selected physical values will be recorded and discussed. | |||||||||||||||||||||||

| Learning objective | Qualitative analysis (simple cation and anion separation, detection of cations and anions), acid-base equilibrium (acid and base strength, pH and pKa values, titrations, buffers, Kjeldahl determination), precipitation equilibria (gravimetry, potentiometry, conductivity), oxidation numbers and redox behavior (synthesis), redox titrations, galvanic elements), metal complexes (synthesis of complexes, ligand exchange reactions, complexometric titration). | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Content | The practical course in general chemistry is intended to introduce students to scientific work and familiarize them with simple experimental work in the laboratory. The aim is to gain initial experience with the reaction behavior of substances. In addition to a series of quantitative experiments, qualitative experiments provide knowledge about the chemical properties of substances. The individual experiments are selected in such a way that the most varied possible overview of substance classes and phenomena of chemistry is obtained. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
