Description
Introductory analytical techniques building on chemistry 1 and chemistry 2. The course introduces the student to fundamental chemical analytical techniques with a focus on chemical structures, concentration terms, classical and instrumental methods of determining qualitative and quantitative data. This module covers volumetric analysis including the application of primary and secondary standards. The module provides an introduction to instrumental techniques, such as, infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet visible spectroscopy, atomic spectrometry, electroanalytical and chromatography.
Learning Outcomes
On completion of this module the learner will/should be able to;
1.
Explain the purpose of most common analytical tests and describe fundamental strategies for the performance of classical and instrumental chemical analysis.
2.
Explain the fundamental principles of a range of instrumental and classical methods of analysis.
3.
Calculate chemical compositions from raw instrumental and non‑instrumental analytical data and express chemical compositions in a range of concentration units.
4.
Interpret qualitative data and ascertain chemical structures from analytical measurements.
5.
Evaluate the reliability of analytical data using simple statistical and quality control techniques.
Teaching and Learning Strategies
This module will be delivered full time. This will include lectures, workshops, tutorials and laboratory practicals. The students will learn through engagement with the class materials / resources indicated in reading lists and through the use of multimedia tools including moodle, internet sites and podcasts.
Module Assessment Strategies
This module is 65% continuous assessment (50% practical and 15% continuous assessment theory) and 35% final examination.
Practical skills, report writing and data evaluation will be assessed fortnightly.
Short question tests will be assigned every three weeks. Half of these will be formative and half summative.
The students must react an assigned gate (30%) in the final examination and achieve 40% overall to pass the module.
Repeat Assessments
Repeat continuous assessment and / or final examination.

The gold standard in analytical chemistry, Dan Harris Quantitative Chemical Analysis provides a sound physical understanding of the principles of analytical chemistry and their applications in the disciplines. Dan Harris presents the subject in a rigorous, readable and interesting manner, lucid enough for non-chemistry majors but containing the depth required by advanced undergraduates. For the first time since the book was published in 1978, Harris has worked with a new contributing author, Professor Chuck Lucy of the University of Alberta. Lucy shares his expertise and teaching experience in Chapters 23-26 on chromatography and capillary electrophoresis.

Pharmaceutical analysis forms a core part of any pharmacy programme, as well as being essential for pharmacology and medicinal chemistry courses. Pharmaceutical analysis determines the purity, concentration, active compounds, shelf life, rate of absorption in the body, identity, stability, rate of release etc. of a drug. Testing a pharmaceutical product involves a variety of analyses, and the analytical processes described in this book are used in industries as diverse as food, beverages, cosmetics, detergents, metals, paints, water, agrochemicals, biotechnological products and pharmaceuticals. The mathematics involved is notoriously difficult, but this much-praised textbook, now revised and updated for its fourth edition, guides a student through the complexities with clear writing and the author's expertise from many years' teaching pharmacy students. There is continuous learning reinforcement throughout the book by way of worked calculation examples and self-assessment test questions. Worked calculation examples Self-assessment Additional problems (self tests) Practical boxes Key points boxes New chapter on electrochemical biosensors. New chapter on the quality control of biotechnologically produced drugs. Extended chapter on molecular emission spectroscopy. Now on StudentConsult. ~
