Multiple-Choice Questions for Teaching Quantitative Instrumental Element Analysis: A Follow-Up

Abstract

This communication follows up to two previously published manuscripts concerning classroom response systems and multiple-choice questions. Here, more than 250 multiple-choice and true-false items for the basics in quantitative instrumental element analysis with keys and brief explanations are presented. Guidelines for designing questions for exams are revisited for developing exercise material, and the generation of distractors based on responses to open-ended questions is investigated within a routine teaching context.
