The teaching of Instrumental Analytical Chemistry and Laboratory is part of the training activities characterizing the three-year degree course in Chemistry and Sustainable Technologies, and is aimed at providing students with the appropriate preparation to deal with a chemical problem in its various aspects and with the appropriate use of the current technical-scientific language.

The course is divided into two modules :theory classes (held in the classroom) and laboratory lessons. Both modules have common training objectives listed below:

1. To provide knowledge of the general principles on which the instrumental analytical techniques most commonly used in chemical analysis laboratories are based.
2. To provide knowledge on the functioning of the instrumentation and on the modality of reading the responses obtained from the different types of instruments and their correlation with the relevant theoretical aspects
3. Develop critical mind that allows students to evaluate the potentials, advantages and limits of the different instrumental analytical techniques studied
4. To Introduce the students to the conscious evaluation of the role of instrumental analytical methods in the specific area of quality control of a good
5. Develop skills in the evaluation and reliability of analytical data.
6. Develop manual skills and ability to conduct experiments autonomously, working both alone and in groups.
7. To develop the ability to apply an analytical method in coherence with protocols already defined and / or established by specific laws.
8. Develop skills in the collection, organization and processing of experimental data and the ability to present them in written and / or graphic form, using the appropriate scientific language.
9. Develop skills to critically interpret and evaluate the experimental results and verify their congruence with the theoretical laws that underlie the techniques used.



1. Knowledge and understanding
A) Knowledge and practical understanding of the elements that make up the instruments for conducting spectroscopic, cromatographic and electrochemical analytical techniques.
B) to knowledge and understand the principal characteristics of experimental data aquisition, obtained by the instrumental analytical techniques used during the laboratory activities.

2. Ability to apply knowledge and understanding
A) Ability to use the laws and concepts learned for the choice of instrumental analytical techniques suitable for solving a specific analytical problem.
B)Ability to use the tools available in the laboratory to obtain the best instrumental performances from a given analytical method.
C) Ability to collect experimental data (alone and / or in groups) and to process the results consistently in the final results, to be made explicit by writing a scientific report.

3. Ability to judge
A) Ability to express an opinion on the application of a certain technique in a specific context.
B) Ability to perform a critical evaluation of the experimental results, recognizing any errors and then proposing alternative methods.
C) Ability to evaluate the logical consistency of the functioning of the tools.
D) Ability to recognize any errors through a critical analysis of the applied method.

4. Communication skills
A) Knowing how to communicate the knowledge learned and the result of their application using appropriate language, both in the oral and written fields.
B) Knowing how to argue with scientific consistency and in written form the meaning of the analytical data obtained from experimental measurements.
C) Develop the ability to work in a team, interacting with peers in a respectful and constructive way, assuming one's role in the team responsibly and fully respecting all safety and prevention regulations in force in the chemical laboratory.

5. Learning skills
A) Develop the ability to take notes by independently identifying the salient aspects of analytical techniques and methods based on the various instrumental analytical techniques considered.
A) Develop the ability to collect data obtained during practical experiences and process them autonomously.


To have achieved the training objectives of Institution of Mathematics 1 and 2 , Physics 2, Analytical Chemistry, General and Inorganic Chemistry , possibly (but not necessary) having passed the examination of these teachings.
To achieve the training objectives and the expected learning outcomes, as regards , the contents developed in the Laboratory module (module 2 of the course) ,are described as follows.

DA COMPLETARE
As a support to the study of the principles and instrumentation used in the laboratory, please refer to the teaching texts indicated in the syllabus of the theoretical part (Module 1)

. For the execution of the experience and the way on how to report analytical data, students are provided of laboratory lecture notes containing details on the instrumentation used, the analytical procedures for the identification and quantification of the various analytes, and how to make a report concerning the experimental results obtained from the laboratory measurements.
