Learning outcomes of the learning unit
To present in details the most common analytical methods in elctrochemistry, mass spectrometry and spectroscopy based on physico-chemical processes. The main aspect developed is the quantitative aspect with an introduction to Quality Assurance. This course does not cover NMR analysis, which is covered in other courses.

Mode of delivery (face to face, distance learning, hybrid learning)
Face-to-face course
Additional information:
Additional information:
Theoretical courses (30h): 1st quadrimester. Face to face. Copies of lecture slides are available. Short movies of analytical methods have been recorded and are available on the plateform e-campus. A selection of analytical methods (GC-MS, ATR-FT-IR, Raman) are directly showed in live during the course to illustrate the theoritical concepts.
The rehearsals concerns certain parts of the theoretical course, illustrated by exercises. The subject covered during the rehearsals is mainly electrochemistry. Quantitative approaches by internal standard and isotope dilution are also discussed.

The electrochemistry rehearsals (block 3 chemistry) include some parts of the theoretical course, illustrated by exercises. The main subject covered in the rehearsals is electrochemistry, which is well suited to the exercises. The approaches to dosing by calibration, titration and the method of standard additions are covered.

Assessment methods and criteria
Exam(s) in session
Any session
- In-person
written exam ( open-ended questions ) AND oral exam
Written work / report
Additional information:
Additional information:
The assessment includes:
1) An examination on the practical work (written examination, out of session, in December) and an oral presentation of the manipulation based on a scientific article (in groups of two, out of session in December). The reports of the practical work to be handed in from week to week.
2) The January face-to-face examination is divided into two parts,
Part 1 (written, duration 3h00) corresponds to a written exam with exercises and theoretical questions on electrochemistry-related material;
Part 2 (oral) corresponds to an oral examination on the mass spectrometry AND spectroscopy (UV, VIS, IR)
The repartition of points on the final score is as follows:
- For the January examination: 70%, of which 30% for the written examination on electrochemistry and 40% for the oral examination on physicochemical methods of analysis.
- For the practical work : 30% including the practical work examination and the oral presentation of the manipulation.
In the case of final failure (overall mark below 10/20), from one year to the next, students who have passed the practical work with a minimum of 10/20 will be exempted from it.
