Synopsis

Although much chemical analysis is centred around modern instrumentation, many methods developed during the nineteenth century are still relevant and applicable. These so called "wet methods" or "classical methods" are widely used in industry and often have the merit of being quick, cheap and reliable. These two volumes explore this topic by considering the role of chemical equilibrium in analysis before a thorough examination of volumetric and gravimetric analysis.

About this title

From the Publisher

This invaluable work covers the subject of analytical chemistry and instrumental techniques. It is designed for anyone interested in studying the basics of these subject areas in a more flexible, non-traditional way than sitting in a classroom--in other words through self study, exploration, and examination. Topical coverage focuses on the equilibrium model and its application to classical analysis and on volumetric analysis in which the principal measured parameters are volumes. Included for study are self assessment questions which test your knowledge of the relevant information learned up to that point. Throughout, you will also find summaries and lists of objectives which emphasize important points covered and tasks you should be able to achieve. The end of the book features reference lists of commonly used scientific symbols and values, units of measurement, and a periodic table.
