Description

The branch of chemistry which deals with the analysis of substances is called analytical chemistry. It involves the use of classical methods such as Kastle-Meyer test, flame tests, gravimetric and volumetric analysis. Modern methods in this field includes spectroscopy, calorimetry and electrochemical methods which are used for separation, identification and quantification of matter. Analytical chemistry is further divided into two broader areas, namely, quantitative analysis and qualitative analysis. Quantitative analysis determines the absolute or relative quantity regarding the concentration of one or more substances present in a sample or compound. Qualitative analysis focuses on determining the quality of a particular compound, irrespective of its quantity or concentration. The principles of analytical chemistry have widespread use in the food and beverage industry, chemical industry, pharmaceutical industry and agricultural industry. The topics included in this book on analytical chemistry are of utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to readers. While understanding the long-term perspectives of the topics, the book makes an effort in highlighting their impact as a modern tool for the growth of the discipline. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this book.
