Incorporation of Modern Spectroscopic Instrumentation into the First Semester General Chemistry Laboratory

傅立叶变换红外光谱仪和紫外/可见光光谱仪已被介绍给圣爱德华大学普通化学实验室第一学期的学生。学生使用这些仪器将光谱测量结合到现有的三组实验中：基本实验技术、定性分析和定量分析。集成的光谱学组件包括强调光谱学的实验和使用光谱学来补充现有实验。这些实验加强了课程讲授部分中对电磁光谱和化学键的讨论。这个项目将使获得现代光谱仪器和技术实用知识的学生人数增加一倍以上。*

Fourier transform infrared and ultraviolet/visible spectrometers have been introduced to students in the first semester general chemistry laboratories at St. Edward's University. Student use these instruments to incorporate spectroscopic measurements into three existing groups of experiments; basic experimental techniques, qualitative analysis, and quantitative analysis. The integrated spectroscopy components include both experiments that emphasize spectroscopy and the use of spectroscopy to supplement existing experiments. The experiments reinforce discussions of the electromagnetic spectrum and chemical bonding presented in the lecture portion of the course. This project will more than double the number of students who acquire a working knowledge of modern spectroscopic instrumentation and techniques. *
