Annotation -
The aim of the subject is to provide the students with firm and sufficiently wide theoretical and methodological fundamentals for pursuing (in a rational way) instrumental analysis of inorganic and organic substances. The teaching is focused on the explanation of theoretical aspects of instrumental methods and putting the accent on problem-solving tuition. In practical training individual approach of students to solving analytical problems is required.

Course completion requirements -

Requirements for credit and exam are based on:

Practical course

  1. Participation in all practical classes – (missing practical classes must be revisited or it can be substituted if permitted by the teacher)
  2. Submission of all reports of practical exercises

  3. Minimum 66% of points for correct results in practical tasks and for correct answers in the monitoring and credit tests

 

Exam

  1. The exam from Instrumental methods is organized in terms presented in the Study information system, the time of exam is always specified. Simple calculator is needed for written exam. Evaluation is carried out directly after evaluation of the test.

  2. The exam is organized together with the subject Analytical chemistry.

  3. For the exam, credits from both practical classes are needed.

  4. Exam organization:

The first term – written test + possibility of oral examination

The second term - written test + oral examination

The third term – oral examination

  1. Exam scope is specified in the Study materials – Study KACH – Instrumental methods
