Gravimetric Analysis Flashcards
Calculation of weight of a substance in a sample from the weight of a chemically equivalent amount of some other substances.
Gravimetric Methods
Methods of separation in Gravimetry
Physical Method
Chemical method
The substance to be measured gravimetrically is separated from other substance composing the sample
Physical Method
Employed when other componenets of the sample are cannot be separated physically
Chemical Method
The molecular weight of the sample proportionate to the molecular weight of residue or precipitate obtained from it
Gravimetric Factor/Chemical Factor
Gravimetric Factor Formula
MW of sample/MW of Residue
Gravimetric Analysis Formula
g residue / g sample * MW sx / MW residue x 100
