Analytical Chemistry Quantitative And Qualitative Analysis

Analytical chemistry is the branch of chemistry which separates, identifies and measures matter. The methods used in analytical chemistry can be classified into classical methods, wet chemical methods and instrumental methods. It can be applied in a number of fields such as medicine, forensic science, environmental science, etc. This book contains some path-breaking studies in the field of analytical chemistry. A number of latest researches have been included to keep the readers up-to-date with the global concepts in this area of study. This book is an essential guide for both academicians and those who wish to pursue this discipline further.

Book envelops various analytical procedures including their principle and application in chemical and drug analysis.

The gold standard in analytical chemistry, Dan Harris’ Quantitative Chemical Analysis provides a sound physical understanding of the principles of analytical chemistry and their applications in the disciplines

The activities developed by the ANAPOGIL consortium fall into six main categories frequently covered in a quantitative chemistry course: Analytical Tools, Statistics, Equilibrium, Chromatography and Separations, Electrochemistry, and Spectrometry. These materials follow the constructivist learning cycle paradigm and use a guided inquiry approach. Each activity lists content and process learning goals, and includes cues for team collaboration and self-assessment. The classroom activities are modular in nature, and they are generally intended for use in class periods ranging from 50-75 minutes. All activities were reviewed and classroom tested by multiple instructors at a wide variety of institutions.

The practice of identification, separation and quantification of matter is under the scope of analytical chemistry. Such analyses can be qualitative or quantitative. Qualitative analysis identifies analytes whereas quantitative analysis determines numerical concentration of the analytes. Separation techniques of precipitation, distillation and extraction, and wet chemical and classical methods are commonly used. Improvements in experimental design, creation of new tools of measurement and chemometrics are significant aspects of analytical chemistry. This textbook aims to shed light on some of the unexplored aspects of analytical chemistry. It elucidates new techniques and their applications in a multidisciplinary approach. In this book, constant effort has been made to make the understanding of the difficult concepts of analytical chemistry as easy and informative as possible, for the readers.

Can be packaged free with any copy of the text.

The in-depth study concerned with the separation, quantification and identification of matter using different methods and instruments is called analytical chemistry. The different concepts and methods used under this field can be divided into two broad categories namely, classical qualitative methods and classical quantitative methods. Qualitative analysis involves the determination of the presence or absence of specific compounds. Kastle-Meyer test, acid test and flame test are examples of qualitative methods used in analytical chemistry. Quantitative analysis measures the quantities of chemical constituents which are present in a substance. It includes volumetric and gravimetric analyses. Spectroscopy, electrochemical analysis, thermal analysis, microscopy, hybrid techniques, etc. are some of the instrumental methods of use in analytical chemistry. Some of its primary applications are in the areas of environmental analysis, forensic science, materials analysis, bioanalysis, etc. This book discusses the fundamentals as well as modern approaches of analytical chemistry. It will serve as an essential guide for both academicians and those who wish to pursue this discipline further.

Principles of Analytical Chemistry gives readers a taste of what the field is all about. Using keywords of modern analytical chemistry, it constructs an overview of the discipline, accessible to readers pursuing different scientific and technical studies. In addition to the extremely easy-to-understand presentation, practical exercises, questions, and lessons expound a large number of examples.
