general chemistry ; organic chemistry ; introduction to the analytical chemistry
The prerequisite(s) for this Teaching Unit (Unité d’enseignement – UE) for the programmes/courses that offer this Teaching Unit are specified at the end of this sheet.
The teacher(s) will discuss the different kinds of spectroscopic techniques (UV, molecular fluorescence, atomic spectroscopy') ; and will then focus on the separation techniques such as HPLC and GC. They will also discuss the detectors that are used to detect the analytes following their separation (UV, FID, MS').
At the end of the activity the student will be able to
- Differentiate the different spectroscopic techniques (type of interaction with the light, nature of the measured signal, ')
- Describe the different separation techniques that have been discussed
- Explain the consequences of a change in the experimental conditions of a separation on the result of the separation.
- Propose, based on the elements discussed during the course, the optimal method allowing the quantification of a given analyte.
The contribution of this Teaching Unit to the development and command of the skills and learning outcomes of the programme(s) can be accessed at the end of this sheet, in the section entitled “Programmes/courses offering this Teaching Unit”.
a written exam spanning from theoretical aspects to exercise resolution
WFARM1313 (practical training in instrumental analysis) allows to approach the theoretical notions in a more practical way.
