Overview

This course is designed to serve as a spectroscopy course in physical chemistry for postgraduate students at the University of Tripoli. It focuses on:• That the student learn the basics of visible and ultraviolet spectroscopy.• Identify the vibrational spectrum of particles and study the rotational spectrum of linear and non-linear particles.• Familiarize students with the basics of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and electronic magnetic resonance.

Intended learning outcomes

a. Knowledge & understandingA.1 The student will be familiar with basic information about visible and ultraviolet spectroscopy.A.2 Introducing the student to the fundamentals of the vibrational and rotational spectrums of linear and nonlinear particles.A.3 Introducing the student to the possibility of obtaining accurate information about the electronic and molecular structure of chemical compounds and studying the applications of electronic magnetic resonance and nuclear magnetic resonance in various branches of chemistry.B. Mental skillsA.1 The ability to understand the types of possible electronic transitions and relate them to the molecular structure of a compound.A.2 The ability to analyze the Dawanian spectrum of a molecule to obtain the values of the rotation constant and thus determine the bond length as well as the ability to predict the vibrational patterns of the molecule.A.3 Ability to measure electron and magnetic resonance spectra of molecules.T. Practical & professional skillsC.1 Familiarity with the laws of absorption and the factors affecting the amount of absorption.C.2 Applying the laws and foundations of the vibrational and rotating spectrum and being able to perform mathematical calculations related to them.C.3 The high-resolution measurements of H NMR, 13C NMR and EPR spectra are widely applied in different fields.w. Generic and transferable skillsD.1 Acquire the skill of scientific research using the Internet to obtain the required information.D.2 The ability to know the identity of an unknown chemical compound by applying the basics of different spectra.D.3 Introducing the student to how to understand and analyze the obtained spectra.
