"The field of chemistry which deals with the study and utilization of instruments and methods that are used to separate, quantify and identify matter is referred to as analytical chemistry. It can be divided into classical and modern methods. The classical methods have been divided into qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis. Some common classical methods include chemical tests, flame tests, and gravimetric analysis and volumetric analysis. Instrumental methods include spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, electrochemical analysis, thermal analysis and microscopy. Analytical chemistry has applications in various fields including forensic science, clinical analysis, environmental analysis, bioanalysis, clinical analysis, and materials analysis. This book provides comprehensive insights into the field of analytical chemistry. It strives to provide a fair idea about this discipline and to help develop a better understanding of the latest advances within this field. Scientists and students actively engaged in this field will find this book full of crucial and unexplored concepts."-- Provided by publisher.
