The lectures provide an advanced account of modern analytical methods and instruments that are used to quantify chemical and biological samples and to monitor the progress of reactions. Students will understand the principles of advanced electrochemical, spectroscopic and chromatographic techniques applied to chemical analysis. The students will be able to use their in-depth knowledge of analytical chemistry to devise experiments that can quantify a range of diverse chemical components. The students will learn problem solving skills where they apply their theoretical knowledge to real life problems in the environment.

Year Taken: AY 18/19, Sem 2
This course is also split into two parts, with different lecturers before and after mid terms. HAHAHA I prepared something for this blog since last sem, its not much but here it goes.
For the first mid term, which is all MCQs, I noted down the number of questions from each topic
Quality Assurance – 5
PSI – 3
Electrolytic – 10
Voltammetry – 4
EPR – 8
So you’ll know which topics to focus on. The EPR topic is taught online so make sure to know how to do the questions~For the second mid term, it is mostly focused on mass spectrometry. The questions are quite similar to what the lecturer went through during lessons so there should be no problem if you pay attention in class, or attempt all the practice questions.
For the finals, all topics are tested and the format is like the past year exams. Generally an okay course, even though it may look like there are a lot to study, the questions are not as difficult to do.
