| Course description |
|
This course is a basic subject of the department. Chemical analyses are indispensable for environmental science and natural resource science. Main contents of this course are basic ways of thinking, fundamental knowledge and techniques in analytical chemistry to get reliable and precise data. Introduction to the theory of errors and multivariate analyses for proper handling of experimental data is also given. Some parts of this course are connected closely with the subjects on analytical chemistry in “Fundamental Experiment on Chemistry”. Spectroscopies and mass spectrometry, which are lectured in detail in “Instrumental Analytical Chemistry”, are only introduced briefly here, while the lecture on chromatography is given here. |
| Expected Learning |
|
(1) Understanding and learning of basic procedures and ways of thinking in analytical chemistry. (2) Learning of knowledge on basic apparatuses and instruments for analytical chemistry, and how to use them to get correct and valuable data. (3) Learning how to handle experimental data.

| Prerequisites |
|
It is desirable to have fundamental knowledge of general chemistry. Related courses are Physical Chemistry A, Physical Chemistry B, Inorganic Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Instrumental Analytical Chemistry, Chemical Kinetics and Dynamics in Nature, and so on. Examples of chemical analyses are shown in many other courses given in Department of Environmental and Natural Resource Sciences. In addition to 30 hours for attending the course, you should conduct preparations and review by refering to textbooks and distributed lecture materials to satisfy our standard number of hours. |

| Message from instructor(s) |
|
In environmental science and the natural resource science, it is the first step for research and development to acquire correct and appropriate data on the target environments or materials. In this sense, analytical chemistry is the essential field for these sciences. In this course, not only the basic knowledge and techniques but also the customs and manners to get correct data will be discussed. |
