MASECHEM

Deals with kinetic theory, ideal and real gases, chemical energetics, rates of reaction including catalysis, an introduction to chemical
equilibria, redox equilibria, acid-base equilibria (pH, buffer solutions, indicators, and others), solubility products, and phase equilibria (including Raoult's Law and the use of various phase diagrams).

Discusses the various methods in chemical analysis (qualitative and quantitative) and the theories embedded in the operation of these methods. This course also covers the principles and instrumentation in spectroscopy, chromatography, and electrochemistry. This course also covers the application of spectroscopic techniques (UV-Vis, IR, MS, NMR) in the structure elucidation of organic compounds. This includes research on preservation and conservation of food and food products; nutritional and food value of foods and food products.
