Introduction
WHAT IS ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY?
Analytical chemistry is concerned with the chemical characterization of matter, both qualitative and quantitative. It is important in nearly every aspect of our lives because chemicals make up everything we use.
This text deals with the principles and techniques of quantitative analysis, that is, how to determine how much of a specific substance is contained in a sample. You will learn how to design an analytical method, based on what information is needed or requested (it is important to know what that is, and why!), how to obtain a laboratory sample that is representative of the whole, how to prepare it for analysis, what measurement tools are available, and the statistical significance of the analysis.
Analytical chemistry becomes meaningful when you realize that a blood analysis may provide information that saves a patient’s life, or that quality control analysis assures that a manufacturer does not lose money from a defective product.
