Credit 3
Coordinator and Dr. Moumita Majumdar
participating faculty (if any) Dr. Nirmalya Ballav
Pre-requisites CH1223 - General Chemistry Practicals I
Objectives The course aims to provide an overview of the most
common experimental characterization and basic
knowledge in inorganic chemistry. It is designed to help
students develop the ability to correlate the chemical and
physical properties of elements and their compounds and to
establish the link
between theory and laboratory practice by conducting
laboratory experiments. Students will acquire expertise in
chemistry laboratory in handling of reagents and solvents
as well as in analytical techniques.
