CHEM 4530L - Physical Chemistry I Laboratory
Experimental determination of molecular weights, ionic velocities, composition of azeotropes and complex ions, equilibrium constants, phase rule diagrams, and vibrational and rotational constants for HCI and DCI. Instrumental procedures include refractometry, polarimetry, viscometry, and infrared spectroscopy.
Requisites: CHEM 4530 or concurrent

Repeat/Retake Information: May be retaken two times excluding withdrawals, but only last course taken counts.
Lecture/Lab Hours: 3.0 laboratory
Grades: Eligible Grades: A-F,WP,WF,WN,FN,AU,I
Learning Outcomes:
- Students will be able to report experimental data, including uncertainties, based on multiple measurements of a quantity.
- Students will be able to use experimental measurements to test the significance of refinements to a theoretical model and determine whether the experimental data justify alteration or refinement of the existing model.
- Students will become familiar with the standard form and style conventions in modern chemistry research literature.
- Students will learn about modern methods and instrumentation for making precise measurements in the physical chemistry laboratory.
