The course Chemistry Laboratory aims to provide a general introduction to
the practical aspects of methods in chemical laboratory.
The students should get a knowledge on basis of organic and inorganic synthesis including crystallization,
distillation, or pH measurement. Introduction to diffraction methods, microscopy, spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic
resonance, separation methods including chromatography, and electrochemical methods will be provided.
