Analytical Chemistry


This semester I have 7 courses, one of which draws my attention above the others: analytical chemistry. This course is about the

Acid-base balance, redox balance, solubility equilibrium (Kps), complexometry. It is important to know that you must know General Chemistry I and II, because this courses involves almost all the subject that is seen in this course. In the classes the teachers teached, for example: How to identify which cation was the one that the compound had when putting it to the flame.




If the flame is red: Sr
If the flame is orange: Ca
If the flame is green: Cu 
If the flame is purple: K
If the flame is yellow-orange: Na
If the flame is yellowish green: Ba


I like this course because I consider myself a perfectionist and in this course you must be very precise with respect to the quantity of reactives, to form products, adjust the pH of some solution, etc. I can't wait to pass this course for the next level: the laboratory. I imagine that if I like theoric part, the experimental procedure would like me one hundred times more.

My favourite piece of "technology"

Well, I do not know if this device is considered technological, but I think that if this instrument was called electroacoustic guitar, should have something of technological, haha. This is a piece of wood that has six strings, personally I think that this contributes in my life in a big quantity, because I'm always stressed and when I play my guitar all the things that were in my mind desappear. I've got this about 6-7 years ago. I remember that the day that my mother bought me the guitar I felt very very happy. I must admit that using this instrument cost me a lot, because I am left-handed and well, I had to acquire enough rhythm in my unskilled hand to get good results. I finally got it, I learned to play guitar alone, watching tutorials on the internet. I usually play this instrument frequently, although now I can not do this all days, the university takes away a lot of time. I think that my life without this, would be boring, there aren't any better than a l...

Personal opinion about some things

Hi everyone, in this blog I'll talk about my opinion to different questions like: What is your opinion about the immigration situation in Chile?; What is your opinion about tatoos?; What is your opinion about legalizing marijuana and other drugs?; What is your opinion about legalizing abortion in some cases? In first place, I think that the inmigration in Chile causes a lot of discomfort in some people because they say "immigrants come to take away from us job opportunities" "immigrants come to increase crime in our country" and many other stupidities. The Chilean people always complain about something, but I think that inmigrants have every right to come to our country to feel better and have a better quality of life.  Also, Chileans are lazy and immigrants do not take "our jobs", most of them come to work in whatever way they can to support their families. In second place, I like tattoos , not big tattoos, but those that are more discreet an...

My route to chemistry

Here I go again. When I was little my dream was to be an actress, because I was good enough to learn scripts and then interpret them. There was also a time when I wanted to study veterinary medicine, I love animals and I always wanted to adopt them all, but my mother never left me, because we have always lived in the apartment and as if it were not enough, I'm allergic. When I was in school, I was very confused because I didn't know what to study, my teachers of chemistry and biology told me many things about the careers that existed. I always wanted something related to chemistry or health. After the results of the PSU I decided to study chemistry and pharmacy but my score didn't reach and I opted for chemistry (my plan was to change later because I didn't know this career). Finally, with the introductory courses the university career managed to win my love and here I am, motivated to continue and take my title. Now, regarding my stay in the university, I feel v...
