General Chemistry Laboratoroy provides a good environment
for students to study basic knowledge of chemical studies, like organic
chemistry, biochemistry, and the applications of other chemical theories.
The combination of courses and experiments ensures students to: 1) adhere
to safety guidelines and other common-sense precautions, 2) prove theories
through experiments, thus fostering their knowledge about basic sciences,
3) develop scientific attitudes through the participation of experiments
and be familiar with scientific methods, 4) know how to use experimental
tools and operate the instruments, and 5) learn chemical techniques and
analytical methods where students lay a foundation by experiments related
to organic chemistry, biochemistry and molecular biology.
Experimental courses involve: 1) chemometrics, 2) molecular weight
determination by the Victor Meyer method, 3) gas laws, 4) solid solubility
and temperature, 5) determination of moisture in solids, 6) determining
chemical formulas, 7) chemical reaction rate, 8) acid-base titration,
9) chemical equilibrium, 10) testing for ions, 11) determining heat of
reaction, 12) redox reactions, 13) adsorption of solids, and 14) chromatography.
