Course Objectives

  • These experiments are intended to acquaint the students with the practice of experimental physical chemistry
  • The students will receive adequate exposure so that they can independently handle and interpret data from basic instruments used in physical chemistry

Course Outcomes

Students are expected to understand the interconnection between experimental foundation and underlying theoretical principles and to develop laboratory skills and get familiar with a variety of physico-chemical measurement techniques
