The Syllabus
- Chemical stoichiometry
- parameters to define concentration of chemicals (normality, molarity, molality, mole-fractions, parts-per million)
- analytical concentration and equilibrium concentrations
- p-value of concentration
- Measurements and its statistical analyses (definition of mean, median, mode,variance, standard deviation, standard error, accuracy, precision)
- need for performing replicates/repeats, reproducibility.
- Classification and sources of errors
- error propagation
- scientific reporting data (significant figures)
- error curves
- Hypothesis validation (null hypothesis, confidence levels, confidence intervals,one-tail test, two-tail test, use of statistical tables such as z-table, t-table, F-table, identifying outliers in data with Q-test)
- Sampling
- fitting and analysis of data (linear regression, single factor analysis of variance, least-significant difference)
- Software-based data analysis (linear and non-linear regression)
- Examples of data fitting and analysis (application to rate kinetics, gradient mixing,biomolecular folding)
- Analytical separations (solvent extraction, chemical precipitation, various types of chromatography – size exclusion, ion exchange, affinity, gas, high pressure liquid chromatography, field-flow fractionation)
- Detectors in chromatography
- Theoretical basis of chromatography (concept of plates, theoretical plate height,plate count, resolution, retention time, retention factor, selectivity factor)
- Differences between rate theory and plate theory
Evaluation process
The certification or proctored exam for the Quantitative Methods in Chemistry programme will be conducted on a day fixed by Swayam through in-person mode. You will have to attend the exam at an exam centre, and more details about the exam centres will be revealed soon after the form is published.
