There are not previous requirement established. Nevertheless it is strongly recommended the following:
1.- To have coursed the following subjects: Fundamentos de Química Analítica and Análisis Volumétrico y Gravimétrico of 2nd course.
2.- To know fundamentals of Chemometrics, analytical calibration including.
3.- To have coursed Análisis Instrumental I of 2nd course.
Análisis Instrumental II is a part of the 18 ECTS credits grouped subject ANÁLISIS INSTRUMENTAL. The latter is mandatory in the Chemistry career and Analisis Instrumental II has 6 ECTS credits and belongs to the third course. The other two subjetcs belonging to Analisis Insturmental are Analisis Instrumental I that is studied in the second course and Métodos Instrumentales de Separación that is studied in the third course.
When Analisis Instrumental II is studied, the student has already coursed the subjects of Fundamentos de Química Analítica, Análisis Volumétrico y Gravimétrico and Analysis Instrumental I, where the fundamentals of Analytical Chemistry, the Analytical Proccess and Instrumental Analysis have been cimentado which provides basic competencias and knoledge in order to para afrontar la presente asignatura con garantías de éxito.
In second course, there are also other subjects such as Química Fisica, than enforce the concepts of spectroscopy, and quantic chemistry which are most needed in Analisis Instrumental.
Analisis Instrumental II meets its continuity with the thrid subject of Analysis Instrumental: Métodos Instrumentales de Separación. Besides, , en un enfoque aplicado y real de la vida cotidiana con la asignatura optativa de Química Analítica Aplicada.
In Análisis Instrumental II it is studied after the introduction, the fundamentals, instrumentation and applications of the main electroanalytical techniques. The most important techniques consedered are the potenciometric and amperometric ones, as well as the voltamperometric. Conductimetry titratios is also studied. Besides, an introduction to mass spectrometry and other instrumental analytical tecniques, such as flow inyection analysis, are studied too.
