Purpose of the course is to teach the student how to approach a quantitative experiment whether in analytical, physical, environmental, or any other branch of chemistry or science. It will emphasize:
1. The importance of running standards and or benchmark experiments and evaluating their relevance. The importance of analyzing results statistically to get an idea of their accuracy and the problems associated with statistical procedures.
2. The approach one takes to developing the craftsmanship part of the experiment. Special emphasis will be the general approach one takes to instruments and how one treats instruments, tests their accuracy and precision, how one gets the maximum precision out of an instrument, how one operates an instrument using your head not your hands. I want to train you to be able to think critically about an experiment and the possible problems you can run into so you can minimize the errors, the time it takes to run the experiment, and the expense involved in the experiment.
3. The interaction between theory and experiment and how the understanding of the theory is essential to being able to read a new procedure and intelligently run that procedure. It may help one speed up the experimental work or improve its accuracy or improve its sensitivity or adapt it to new circumstances.
4. The general concept of analysis as opposed to and complementary to synthesis: analysis of results to see if they agree or disagree with theory; analysis of data to choose future experiments; analysis of experiment to decide if it will produce the kind of data that will prove or disprove a theory or hypothesis; analysis of the results of synthesis to see if one has obtained the expected results; detailed analysis of an idea to see if it can be kept or if it should be thrown out or refined.
