Analytical Chemistry 2. [Dunnington].

The work of this course is also given in three lessons a week
throughout the session, each being followed by four hours or more
of practical laboratory work. This course is primarily one in Quantitative
Analysis. After some training in manipulation and gravimetric
estimations, the class pursues volumetric estimations and a full
course in Quantitative Analysis of minerals, ores, coal, soil, iron and
steel, technical products, and so on. Weekly written exercises are
required. As the student advances in the course he is encouraged to
undertake original research and assisted in its prosecution; and in determining
his fitness for graduation, work of this kind is considered as
having much weight.

The laboratory is open to students six days in the week, during
all the working hours of the day.
