It will explain the instrumental methods of identification of organic substances – elemental analysis, mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry.
5. Explain the sampling of gaseous, liquid and solid substances. Define the general principles of sampling. Describes the specifics of sampling gaseous (discrete samples – gas pipette, continuous sampling – sampling apparatus), liquid (single and serial sampling, plain and mixed samples, sample stability) and solid (heterogeneity of substances, sample crushing and splitting, soil sampling).
6. Explain non-destructive and destructive analytical methods, dissolution and decomposition of samples. Describe non-destructive analytical methods, the principle of activation analysis. Describe destructive analytical methods – dissolution (in water) and decomposition of samples (by acids, fusion, sintering, wet path mineralization, dry path – pyrolysis), mineralizers.
7. Explain elimination of interferents, separation methods and their efficiency. Describe the elimination of interferents by chemical means (masking) and physical separation (separation). Explain separation methods: separation by principle (by type of contact phase and analyte phase) and by experimental set-up (discrete separation, in-flow separation), separation efficiency (distribution ratio, distribution constant).
8. Explain the extraction. Describe extractions (liquid/liquid, liquid/gas, liquid/solid, supercritical fluid extraction). Explain ion-exchange separations (catex, anex, ion exchange, ion exchange regeneration, packed and column methods).
9. Explain weighing analysis (gravimetry). Define the basic steps of analysis: sample preparation, precipitation (quantitative precipitation conditions), precipitate maturation (precipitate properties), washing and filtration, drying and annealing, weighing of precipitate, calculation of concentration (gravimetric factor).
10. Explain volumetric analysis (volumetry) – principle, equivalence point, indications, titration curves. Describe titration: determination procedure, determination of the end point of titration (subjective and objective methods, equivalence point vs. end point of titration), titration curves (sigmoidal, linear), calculation of analyte content from titration data. Describe the preparation of volumetric solutions: from primary standards, from non-standard substances, standardisation of volumetric solutions (factor).

Describe precipitation titrations: argentometry, volumetric solutions, indicators, typical examples of determinations, titration curves. Describes acid-base titrations: volumetric solutions, indicators, strong and weak acid (base) titrations, titration curves, indicator selection; titrations in non-aqueous media.
12. Explain complexometric and redox titrations. Define types of titration determinations. Describe complexometric titrations: chelaton titration (effect of pH and complexity constant on the course of determination), indicators, typical examples of determinations (metal ions, water hardness). Describes redox titrations: overview of basic reagents for redox titrations, titration curves, indicators, typical examples of determinations.
