Applied Science & Humanities

Institute of Technology Gopeshwar, Uttarakhand is an center for excellence academic in undergraduate (B.Tech.) technical education with the help of various discipline of engineering department, applied science and humanities. The chemistry section is running under the umbrella of department of applied science and humanities to impart systemize knowledge of chemistry to undergraduate engineering students. Moreover, in order to improve quality education of chemistry practical and chemical transformation, chemistry section has well established laboratory. The chemistry section has been engaged in improving the experimental skill of undergraduate engineering students through conducting various experiments. for instance, acid base titration, heat of neutralization, complexometric titration, analysis of water quality and analytical spectroscopic tools etc.

List of experiments

1.  Pre lab
2.  Determination of Dissolved Oxygen (D. O.) in the given water sample by Winkler method.
3. To determine the alkalinity of given water sample.
4. Determination of Iron content in an iron ore by titrating it against standard K₂Cr₂O₇ solution using potassium ferricyanide [K₃Fe(CN)₆] as an external indicator. 5. To determine the chloride content in water sample by Mohr’s method. 6. To determine the percentage of available chlorine in the given sample of bleaching powder (Iodometrically). 7. To determine temporary and permanent hardness in given water sample using EDTA as standard solution (Coplexometric titration). 8. To determine the Heat of Neutralization of Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and Hydrochloric acid (HCl). 9. To study Spectral and analytical technique. Chemistry Lab Facilities Titration setup and glassware’s: All the experiment in the chemistry syllabus are related to titration only. Therefore, mostly the first year B.Tech student’s deals with titration experiments in order to find out the strength of given substance. Volumetric flask: Different size volumetric Flask for making solutions Glassware’s for Titration experiment: Traditional Weighing balances: Digital Weighing balances: Hot air Oven for drying glasswares, heating mental and hot plates: Melting point apparatus and P ^H Metery for the measurement of P ^H

About

Applied Physics is providing a sound science base for all engineering disciplines in their I and II semester. The courses are designed to serve the need for a particular branch of engineering. The department has well equipped labs for B.Tech. students where experiments are designed to broaden experimental skill related to various branches of engineering and technology. The experiments are based mainly upon Optics, Electrostatics and Electricity& Magnetism, Modern Physics and Solid State Physics which are the parts of theory syllabus.
