# CHEM 114 - Inorganic Quantitative Analysis

## Section A: General Information

- **Course Title:** Inorganic Quantitative Analysis
- **Type of Course:** Compulsory, Sessional, Non-departmental
- **Offered to:** EEE
- **Pre-requisite Course(s):** None

## Section B: Course Details

### Course Content (As approved by the Academic Council)

Volumetric analysis: Acidimetry-Alkalimetry. Titrations involving redox reactions: Determination of Fe, Cu, and Ca volumetrically. Determination of Ca and Mg in water.

### Course Objectives

To develop the basic understanding of a student dealing with chemical reagents, equipment necessary to perform quantitative inorganic analysis along with associated theoretical knowledge on acidimetry-alkalimetry, redox and complexometry

To provide hands on experience on the techniques of volumetric methods in analyte determination and to prepare students presenting their experimental findings as scientific reports
