Review of chemical equilibria, gravimetric analysis, acids, bases, and volumetric analysis, statistics in chemical analysis, molecular and atomic spectroscopy, and electroanalytical methods of analysis. Includes lab work. Structure, properties, function, and metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acids, emphasizing enzymology, bioenergetics, and metabolic regulation. Includes lab work. Identification of unknown organic compounds, using classical and instrumental methods, based on the reactions of organic functional groups and the results of instrumental analyses.
Identification is confirmed by the synthesis of derived compounds.
Includes lab work. Application of instrumental techniques to chemical analysis, including spectroscopy, chromatography, spectrophotometry and potentiometry.
