This practical workbook is designed for first-year students in Physical Measurements and Scientific Instrumentation (MPIS).
The primary goals of conducting and preparing chemistry experiments are:
-
- To familiarize students with the most common techniques in practical chemistry.
- To enable students to apply in practice certain reactions that they have studied, or will study, in lectures or tutorials. This approach highlights that practical work is not separate from the course or tutorials but is an essential complement to them. The integration of theoretical and practical aspects of chemistry is reinforced through questions posed at the end of each experiment.
This workbook outlines the experiments conducted during 2-hour sessions. The exercises, which include tasks such as solution preparation and volumetric measurements, aim to introduce students to essential laboratory procedures. Additionally, they emphasize the importance of careful handling and cleanliness of the equipment, as the accuracy of the results depends on these factors.
