The Teaching/Learning Process in Analytical Chemistry

Before teaching a course, the instructor must identify what she or he intends for the students to learn. For most analytical chemistry instructors, this usually involves an assessment of what methods and techniques to include and at what depth to cover them. There are many other skills, though, that will be important to students for their future success. Most college classes in analytical chemistry are taught in a lecture format. Techniques that can be used to improve the learning that can occur during a lecture are described. An alternative to lecturing is the use of cooperative learning. Cooperative learning offers the potential to develop skills such as teamwork, communication, and problem-solving that are more difficult to impart in a lecture format. The laboratory component of analytical chemistry courses is often an underutilized learning resource. More often than not, the lab is used to demonstrate fundamental wet and instrumental analysis techniques and develop rudimentary laboratory skills. The analytical lab should also be used to develop meaningful problem-solving skills and to demonstrate and have students participate in the entire analytical process. Ways of enhancing the analytical laboratory to include more global skills that are important to career success are described.Received January 12, 2003; accepted March 7, 2003 Published online July 16, 2003     

Portable formaldehyde monitoring device using porous glass sensor and its applications in indoor air quality studies

We have developed a portable device for formaldehyde monitoring with both high sensitivity and high temporal resolution, and carried out indoor air formaldehyde concentration analysis. The absorbance difference of the sensor element was measured in the monitoring device at regular intervals of, for example, one hour or 30 min, and the result was converted into the formaldehyde concentration. This was possible because we found that the lutidine derivative that was formed as a yellow product of the reaction between 1-phenyl-1,3-butandione and formaldehyde was stable in porous glass for at least six months. We estimated the reaction rate and to be 0.049 min⁻¹ and the reaction occurred quickly enough for us to monitor hourly changes in the formaldehyde concentration. The detection limit was 5 μg m⁻³ h. We achieved hourly formaldehyde monitoring using the developed device under several indoor conditions, and estimated the air exchange rate and formaldehyde adsorption rate, which we adopted as a new term in the mass balance equation for formaldehyde, in one office.     

Ag@ Fe-TiO2 catalysts for catalytic oxidation of formaldehyde indoor: a further improvement of Fe-TiO2

In this paper, a series of Fe-doped TiO₂ (Fe-TiO₂) catalysts were prepared by ultrasonic hydrothermal method and were used to catalytic oxidation formaldehyde (HCHO) indoor at room temperature. Although the catalytic activity was improved compared with P25, but the final concentration of HCHO was still higher than the Chinese standard (GB 0.08 mg/m³), and the stability was restrict under room temperature. In order to improve the catalytic activity and stability of the catalysts, various concentrations of Ag were loaded on Fe-TiO₂, and good catalytic oxidation effect was obtained and had a good repeat catalytic effect under room condition. UV–Vis, IR, PL, XRD, SEM, BET, XPS were used to characterize the materials. The results showed that the higher dispersion of active Ag, and the synergistic effect between Ag, Fe and TiO₂ nanostructure were helpful to improve the catalytic oxidation ability of Ag@Fe-TiO₂. In the repeat experiments, 0.6%Ag@0.3%Fe-TiO₂ exhibited good catalytic activity and stability. The formaldehyde concentration was reduced to 0.05 mg/m³, after four rounds of tests, the formaldehyde concentration was still below 0.08 mg/m³, applying for long time indoor HCHO degradation at room temperature. Indicating the modification of Ag element can further promote the catalytic activity and stability of Fe-TiO₂.

     

Interaction of the indoor air pollutant acetone with Degussa P25 TiO2 studied by chemical ionization mass spectrometry

Preventing a build-up of indoor pollutant concentrations has emerged as a major goal in environmental chemistry. Here, we have applied chemical ionization mass spectrometry to study the interaction of acetone, a common indoor air pollutant, with Degussa P25 TiO2, an inexpensive catalyst that is widely used for the degradation of volatile organic compounds into CO2 and water. To better understand the adsorption of acetone onto Degussa P25, the necessary first step for its degradation, the experiments were carried out at room temperature in the absence of UV light. This allowed for the deconvolution of the nonreactive and reactive thermal binding processes on Degussa P25 at acetone partial pressures (10(-7)-10(-4) Torr) commonly found in indoor environments. On average, 30% of the adsorbed acetone is bound irreversibly, resulting in a surface coverage of irreversibly bound acetone of approximately 1 x 10(12) molecules/cm2 at 3-4 x 10(-5) Torr. Equilibrium and dynamic experiments yield a sticking coefficient of approximately 1 x 10(-4) that is independent of the acetone partial pressures examined here. Equilibrium binding constants and free energies of adsorption are reported.     

Determination of trace amounts of formaldehyde in acetone

A method to quantify sub-ppm levels of formaldehyde in acetone has been developed and it is reported here. In this method, the different reactivities and stabilities of sulfite with formaldehyde and acetone are used to separate the two carbonyl compounds. Sulfite reacts with formaldehyde to form hydroxymethanesulfonate (HMS), the non-volatile and stable nature of which allows its separation from bulk acetone solvent. The resulting HMS is then converted back to formaldehyde under basic conditions, and formaldehyde is derivatized with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH) and quantified in its DNP hydrazone form using high-performance liquid chromatography-UV detection. The method detection limit at the 99% confidence level was 0.051 mg L⁻¹. A batch of samples can be processed within 4 h. The method has been applied to quantify the amount of formaldehyde in an analytical-grade acetone and in a commercial nail polish remover and the level of formaldehyde was found to be 0.175 and 0.184 mg L⁻¹, respectively.     

Development of novel detection reagent for simple and sensitive determination of trace amounts of formaldehyde and its application to flow injection spectrophotometric analysis

In this paper, a novel detection reagent for formaldehyde determination is proposed, and is applied to a simple and highly sensitive flow injection method for the spectrophotometric determination of formaldehyde. The method is based on the reaction of formaldehyde with methyl acetoacetate in the presence of ammonia. The increase in the absorbance of the reaction product was measured at 375 nm. An inexpensive light emitting diode (LED)-based UV detector (375 nm) was, for the first time, used. Under the optimized experimental conditions, formaldehyde in an aqueous solution was determined over the concentration range from 0.25 to 20.0 × 10⁻⁶ M with a liner calibration graph; the limit of detection (LOD) of 5 × 10⁻⁸ M (1.5 μg L⁻¹) was possible. The relative standard deviation of 12 replicate measurements of 5 × 10⁻⁶ M formaldehyde was 1.2%. Maximum sampling throughput was about 21 samples/h. The effect of potential interferences such as metals, organic compounds and other aldehyde was also examined. The analytical performance for formaldehyde determination was compared with those obtained by the conventional acetylacetone method, which uses visible absorption spectrophotometry. Finally, the proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of formaldehyde in natural water samples.     

Badge-type diffusive sampler using 3-methyl-2-benzothiazolinone hydrazone for measuring formaldehyde in indoor air.

The evaluation of a badge-type diffusive sampler for measuring formaldehyde using 3-methyl-2-benzothiazolinone hydrazone (MBTH) was investigated. On average, the formaldehyde concentration in blanks was reduced by approximately 31% by cleaning procedures. The cleaning techniques did not significantly differ in effectiveness. The maximum sampling rate was 22.4 +/- 3.5 mL min(-1) at MBTH concentrations of 0.05%. The formaldehyde concentration in blanks did not appreciably increase over a period of about 1 month at room temperature, and was 0.36 +/- 0.03 microg, with a relative standard deviation of 8%. The diffusive sampler had good precision and accuracy for measuring formaldehyde in indoor environments. For a 24-h exposure time, the limits of detection and quantification calculated with the field blanks were 9.7 and 13.8 ppb, respectively. The minimum exposure times were calculated based on the measured and calculated limits of quantification, the sampling rate, and the atmospheric formaldehyde concentration. The capacity of the diffusive sampler with 0.5% MBTH was 3 ppm h(-1), approximately 1.5-times the capacity when the MBTH concentrations were 0.05%.
