This course is one of the core activities of the study course, whose objectives are to teach a systematic knowledge of the environment and good practice in using scientific methods in the analysis of components and factors of environmental processes, including systems and problems concerning the environment in the natural state or modified by man. In this context, the course objectives are to provide the student with knowledge and skills related to classical and instrumental analytical techniques for the qualitative and quantitative determination of elements and compounds of natural and anthropogenic origin in environmental matrices. Therefore, knowledge and tools are provided for the assessment of the contamination of parts of the environmental and for the study of both natural and man-made environmental processes.
The scope of the course is to provide the knowledge and methodological basis necessary for the qualitative and quantitative determination of elements and compounds in the various environmental matrices using classical and instrumental analytical techniques. The student will acquire a broad spectrum of analytical chemistry knowledge and skills including:
Knowledge and understanding
- Know the fundamental principles and terminologies of classical and instrumental analytical techniques.
- Know the principles of operation and use of classical analytical techniques and of the main analytical instruments.
Ability to apply knowledge and understanding
- (Know the fundamental principles and terminologies of classical and instrumental analytical techniques). Knowing how to correctly understand and use scientific terminology used to describe analytical methodologies and instrumentation for the determination of elements and chemical compounds in environmental matrices.
- (Know the principles of operation and use of classical analytical techniques and of the main analytical instruments.) Knowing how to identify and use the classical analytical techniques and analytical instruments suitable for the qualitative and quantitative determination of elements and compounds in different environmental matrices depending on the proposed environmental problems faced.

Judgment skills
Knowing how to identify and use the classical techniques and the analytical chemical methodologies appropriate for the resolution of the various environmental problems.
Communication skills
Knowing how to communicate both verbally and in writing to the general public or experts using language to describe the use, operation and results obtained from the use of classical techniques and analytical methodologies for the determination of elements and compounds in environmental matrices.
Learning ability
Knowing how to use the scientific method as a work tool both for the continuation of the training course with the master's degree, and for the professional activity. Knowing how to identify and use the classical and instrumental analytical techniques suitable for solving various environmental questions.

Basic skills of general and inorganic chemistry, basic mathematics and the more important mathematic functions.
Measurement Basics: errors in Analytical Chemistry, concept of Cemical equilibrium.
Classical methodologies: gravimetric and volumetric methods. Volumetric titrations.
Spectroscopic methods: Basic concept for the spectroscopic techniques, instrumentation, Molecular and Atomic Spectroscopy.
Introduction to the separation techniques, gas-chromatography and liquid chrnomatography.

In the oral examination will be tested:
- theoretical knowledge on classical and instrumental analytical techniques.
- The theoretical knowledge on the use of classical and instrumental analytical techniques.
The questions provide a detailed description of the theoretical principles and the theoretical methods of using classical and instrumental analytical techniques in the quali-quantitative determination of elements and compounds in the various environmental matrices. Evaluation knowledge of analytical data will also be tested.
