Description: Aims & Learning Objectives:
To build on existing physical chemistry techniques and reinforce lecture material. After studying this unit, students should be able to:
* Use spreadsheets to analyse data in a competent manner.
* Understand the importance of advanced experimental design and safety
* Perform sophisticated experimental manipulation
* Evaluate complicated results in terms of the theory underlying the experiment
* Write coherent scientific reports on obtained data.

Content:
5 self contained experiments to include: surface analysis, polymer solution viscosities, phase equilibria, electrochemical techniques, photochemistry and colloid science, rotational - vibrational spectroscopy, kinetics.
NB. Programmes and units are subject to change at any time, in accordance with normal University procedures.
