Course description and aims
[Summary of the lecture] How do we get chemical information utilized in environmental chemistry and geochemistry? This course explains various samples used in environmental chemistry and geochemistry and their analytical methods and handling method of experimental data.
[Aim of the lecture] The main purpose of this course is to learn principle of analytical method and handling method of experimental data used in enviornmental chemistry and geochemistry.
Student learning outcomes
At the end of this course, students will be able to:
(1) Explain sampling method, preparation method and analytical method of various samples used in environmental chemistry and geochemistry.
(2) Explain qualification and quantification analyses of elements, separation methods and mass spectrometric measurements of chemical compounds.
(3) Explain isotopic measurements of light elements.
(4) Explain handling method of experimental data.
Keywords
Environmental Chemistry, Geochemistry, analytical chemistry
