Introduction To Analytical Chemistry

The document discusses different types of chemical analysis. Quantitative analysis determines the amount of a material present in a sample, while qualitative analysis identifies the constituents. Trace amounts are less than 0.01% or 100 parts per million. Analytical chemistry uses both wet chemical and instrumental methods and finds applications across many fields including chemistry, biology, medicine, materials science, and more. An analytical chemist understands analytical principles and methods, can apply and modify methods to solve problems, and evaluate and interpret analytical results.

TYPES OF ANALYSIS

• Quantitative analysis is an analysis to


determine how much of a material is present
in a sample.

• Classification of the constituents in a sample

Major 1 - 100%
Minor 0.01 – 1%
Trace < 0.01% (<100 ppm)
Ultratrace few part per million or less
