Quantitative Analysis: Gravimetric, Volumetric and Instrumental Analysis

This textbook is designed for use in a beginning course in quantitative analysis either near the end of the freshman year or during the sophomore year in college. The scope and depth of the material should fit nicely into a one-semester course. The objective of this text is to provide the student with the basic fundamentals and techniques of classical quantitative analysis and to present this material in a manner which can be readily comprehended. In this new edition, the authors have added a chapter which serves as an introduction to chromatographic methods of analysis. An early introduction into the theory and especially the laboratory techniques of quantitative analysis is important in the training of scientist and health-related professionals Table of Contents: Chapter 1: An Introduction to Analytical Chemistry; Chapter 2: Operations of Quantitative Analysis; Chapter 3: Treatment of Analytical Data; Chapter 4: Gravimetric Analysis; Chapter 5; Calculations Involving Saturated Solutions of Slightly Soluble Salts; Chapter 6: Volumetric Analysis; Chapter 7: Calculations Involving Solutions of Acids and Bases; Chapter 8: Acid-Base Titration Curves; Chapter 9: Theory of Oxidation-Reduction Reactions and Titrations; Chapter 10: Precipitation Titrations; Chapter 11: Complexometric Titrations; Chapter 12: Spectrophotometric Methods of Analysis; and new* Chapter 13: Introduction to Chromatographic Separations and Analyses. *Also included: 25 Laboratory Procedures.Earnest, Charles M. is the author of 'Quantitative Analysis: Gravimetric, Volumetric and Instrumental Analysis', published 2001 under ISBN 9780923231392 and ISBN 0923231390.
