Note from June 29, 2020
Although we do not yet know how long the social distancing related to the Covid-19 pandemic will last, and regardless of the changes that had to be made in the evaluation of the June 2020 session in relation to what is provided for in this learning unit description, new learnig unit evaluation methods may still be adopted by the teachers; details of these methods have been - or will be - communicated to the students by the teachers, as soon as possible.

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.
Main themes
The teacher(s), helped by graduate students and technicians, will discuss the different types of particle exchange in a solution. The aim is first to give the practical basis that will help to understand the theoretical notions studied during WFARM1243 ; second to form the students to the analytical reasoning.  
Aims

At the end of this learning unit, the student is able to :

1 At the end of the activity the student will be able to
  • Behave in an analytical lab environment
  • To understand notions such as 'trueness, accuracy, experimental error'
  • To understand and use an experimental protocol
  • To discuss the results he has obtained during the experiment
 

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”.
Content
The activities focus on the preparation and resolution of exercises, as well as practical manipulations to illustrate the concepts addressed in the EU WFARM2143. The themes summarized below are discussed.
  • General aspects of an analytical lab ("good laboratory practices")
  • Gravimetry and precipitometry
    • Quantification of sulfates and chlorides by several techniques, and quantification of iodide based on the European pharmacopoeia
  • Acidimetry
    • Titrations in aqueous media
    • Titrations in non aqueous media
  • Complexometry
    • Measure of the drinking water hardness
    • Screening for toxics (Bi ' Pb)
  • Oxydimetry
    • Quantification of several ions (iron, iodides, calcium) and of pharmaceutical substances (chloramine T, sulfanilamide)
Teaching methods
the activity takes place in didactic labs
the actual experiments are preceded by theoretical  exercises (that need to be prepared by the student)  
Evaluation methods
Continuous evaluation based on the post-experiment reports, on the evaluation of the student preparation to the experiment, and a final exam.
Teaching materials
  • Le manuel TD/TP est disponible sur la plateforme moodle
