Course Objectives
‫أهداف المقرر‬
 ‫مقرر عملي يهدف إلعطاء الطالب أساسيات في تحضير مترا كبات العناصر االنتقالية‬
 The course places a strong and rigorous emphasis on good
laboratory notebook skills, professionally written lab notes, and
oral communication skills. Critical thinking is the backbone of the
course; students should report their results with analysis and
conclusions.
 The successful student will gain an understanding into:1) Inorganic synthesis.
2) Metal-ligand interaction and reactivity
3) Physical characterization of inorganic substances via the
application of classical and modern methods of analysis, including
the use of modern instrumentation (IR, UV/ Vis, etc...) leading to
structural prediction.

Important rules of academic conduct
Laboratory Rules:-
1)
2)
3)
4)
5)
Follow good laboratory techniques (ask your Lab instructor).
Protect yourself from accidents when using equipments.
Do not taste / inhale chemicals or place chemicals in your hand.
Do not set on the laboratory bench.
Take a position in the lab that you are protecting yourself as
well as others.
6) Use your own observations and analysis.
7) When studying chemical reaction it’s important to note: The reagent and any special experimental circumstances that
were applied when the test was performed.
 The changes observed.
 An equation that represents the reaction occurring.
 Conclusion derived from the test.
 Conclusions derived from UV/Vis and IR spectra.
 Conclusions derived from metal and ligand analysis.
Student responsibilities to the course:1) Attendance.
2) Ability to answer questions being asked during the lecture.
3) Understand both theoretical and experimental part of the course.
4) Submit analysis and report on time.
5) Good notes recording is important.
