Outline and Purpose of the Course As an introduction to analytical chemistry, basic subjects related to the underlying chemical equilibrium in solution, including acid-base, complex formation, redox, dissolution, and partition equilibrium, will be given and some exercises will also be conducted.
Course Goals Learn important matters related to in-solution chemical equilibrium, which is the basis of analytical chemistry.
Schedule and Contents 1. Outline of chemical equilibrium (2): Explain the basics of chemical equilibrium as the basis for dealing with in-solution chemical equilibrium, such as acid-base, complex formation, precipitation, and redox reactions.

2. Acid-base equilibrium (4): Based on the Bronsted's definition of acids and bases, the pH calculation methods for various solutions are shown, and the estimation of the neutralization titration curve, selection of indicators, and buffer solutions are explained. The acid-base equilibrium in complex systems containing polyprotic acids will also be shown.

3. Complex formation equilibrium (4): Mainly for chelatometric titration, the condition formation constant is evaluated in consideration of side reactions, such as the protonation of ligands and the complexing effect of metal ions. And discuss the feasibility of complex titration. The prediction of titration curves and metal indicators will be discussed.

4. Redox equilibrium (4): The electrode potential and Nernst equation, which are the basis for understanding the redox equilibrium, are explained. The relationship between the electrode potential and the redox equilibrium in an aqueous solution is discussed. The relationship between the amount of the titrant and potential in a redox titration is shown. The actual titration is will be given.

5. Confirmation of learning achievement (1): Confirm (comment) the achievement of the contents of this lecture.
Evaluation Methods and Policy Evaluation will be based on assignments (80%) and class performance (20%).
Course Requirements None
Study outside of Class (preparation and review) Introduced during class if necessary.
