Course Objectives:
The objective of Analytical Chemistry II is to discuss instrumental methods for chemical analysis. Instrumental analysis is playing a crucial role in today’s chemical and pharmaceutical industry, biomedicine, environmental and materials sciences. This course will introduce to the students technologies that utilize automated instrumentation to identify, quantify and separate chemical species. Optical spectroscopic, mass spectrometric and chemical separation methods will be covered in the course.
Grading:
Problem sets 250 points; Hour exams 300 points; Final exam 200 points. Total points for the course: 750 Plus and minus grades will be assigned.
(1) Problem Sets: Five problem sets will be assigned during the semester. The problem sets will
be based on lecture materials and the textbook. (50 points each)
(2) Hour exams: There will be three hour exams. (100 points each)
(3) Final exam: The final exam will have two components. The first component covers materials
since hour exam 3 and the second is cumulative. (200 points)
Course Web Site:
All course materials are available on the 004:112 ICON site. Course syllabus, schedule,
lecture notes, announcements, answer keys to assignments and exams, and grades are
posted on this site.
Administrative Home
The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is the administrative home of this course and governs
matters such as the add/drop deadlines, the second-grade-only option, and other related issues.
Different colleges may have different policies. Questions may be addressed to 120 Schaeffer
Hall, or see the CLAS Student Academic Handbook.
Electronic Communication
University policy specifies that students are responsible for all official correspondences sent to
their University of Iowa e-mail address (@uiowa.edu). Faculty and students should use this
account for correspondences. ( Operations Manua l, III.15.2. Scroll down to k.11.)
Accommodations for Disabilities
A student seeking academic accommodations should first register with Student Disability
Services and then meet privately with the course instructor to make particular arrangements. See
www.uiowa.edu/~sds/ for more information.
Academic Fraud
Plagiarism and any other activities when students present work that is not their own are academic
fraud. Academic fraud is a serious matter and is reported to the departmental DEO and to the
Associate Dean for Undergraduate Programs and Curriculum. Instructors and DEOs decide on
appropriate consequences at the departmental level while the Associate Dean enforces additional
consequences at the collegiate level. See the CLAS Academic Fraud section of the Student
Academic Handbook.
CLAS Final Examination Policies
Final exams may be offered only during finals week. No exams of any kind are allowed during
the last week of classes. Students should not ask their instructor to reschedule a final exam since
the College does not permit rescheduling of a final exam once the semester has begun. Questions
should be addressed to the Associate Dean for Undergraduate Programs and Curriculum.
Making a Suggestion or a Complaint
Students with a suggestion or complaint should first visit the instructor, then the course
supervisor, and then the departmental DEO. Complaints must be made within six months of the
incident. See the CLAS Student Academic Handbook.
Understanding Sexual Harassment
Sexual harassment subverts the mission of the University and threatens the well-being of
students, faculty, and staff. All members of the UI community have a responsibility to uphold
this mission and to contribute to a safe environment that enhances learning. Incidents of sexual
harassment should be reported immediately. See the UI Comprehensive Guide on Sexual
Harassment for assistance, definitions, and the full University policy.
Reacting Safely to Severe Weather
In severe weather, class members should seek appropriate shelter immediately, leaving the
