Fundamentals of Analytical Chemistry/ By Douglas A. Skoog

By: Contributor(s): Material type: TextTextPublication details: Belmont: Cengage Learning, 2014,.Edition: 9thDescription: xvii, 47 p. : ill. ; 25 cmISBN:
  • ISBN-13: 978-0-495-55828-6
LOC classification:
  • DUCE QD101.2 .S55
Online resources: Summary: This textbook provides a comprehensive introduction to the principles, techniques, and applications of analytical chemistry. It focuses on how chemical information is obtained, processed, and interpreted to solve real-world problems. The book begins with fundamental concepts such as chemical measurements, errors, data analysis, and statistical evaluation, emphasizing accuracy, precision, and reliability in experimental work. It then explores classical (wet) chemical methods, including gravimetric and titrimetric analysis, before moving into modern instrumental techniques. These include spectroscopy (such as UV-Vis, infrared, and atomic spectroscopy), electrochemical methods, and chromatographic separations. Each method is presented with its theoretical foundation, instrumentation, and practical applications. The text also highlights the role of analytical chemistry in diverse fields such as environmental monitoring, medicine, industry, and research. Throughout, it emphasizes problem-solving skills, method selection, and quality assurance, preparing students to design experiments and interpret analytical results effectively. Overall, the book serves as a foundational resource for understanding both the theory and practice of analytical chemistry, bridging basic concepts with advanced analytical techniques. http://172.20.27.22:4000/handle/123456789/150
