METHODS OF ANALYSIS

A
  1. Volumetric Analysis
  2. Physicochemical Analysis
  3. Gravimetric Analysis
  4. Special Methods
32
Q

Determination of the volume of a solution of known concentration required to react with a given amount of the substance to be analyzed.

o Spectrophotometric
o Electrometric
o Thermal conductimetric
o Refractometric
o polarimetric

35
Q

Separation by extraction, precipitation, and other means of the constituent to be determined either in the natural state or in the form of definite compound the composition and of which is known to the analyst, and the weighing of the resulting product.

A

Gravimetric Analysis

36
Q

Those which requires a distinct type of technique.

37
Q

Used to denote the agreement of an experimental result or the agreement of the mean value of the experimental results with the hue value.

ACCURACY

38
Q

Measure of reproducibility of date within a series of results.

A

PRECISION

39

Source and Nature of Errors

40
Q

2 types of errors

A

Indeterminate errors
Determinate errors

41
Q

Manifest themselves by slight variations in a series of observations made by the same observer under identical conditions.

Causes are difficult to detect such as the differences in the judgement and the skill of the analyst.

Indeterminate errors are intangible, and their elimination by the analyst is impossible.

A

Indeterminate Errors

42
Q

Nature that occurs in constant manner in each series of determinations.

usually detectable and so may be eliminated

Arise from causes such as:
- Personal error made by the analyst (ex. Inability to judge color changes sharply).

  • Errors of method caused by faulty procedure (ex. Incorrect sampling, contamination of precipitates, and improper selection of indicators).
  • Apparatus errors due to poor construction or calibration (ex. Inaccuracy in the calibration of burets or pipets, inequality in the length of the arms of the balance and incorrect weights).

PRIMARY STANDARD

56
Q

A compound whose purity (97-98%) has been established by careful chemical analysis.

A

SECONDARY STANDARD

57
Q

Sometimes it is necessary to add an excess of the standard titrant and the excess amount is titrated with a second standard titrant.

A

BACK TITRATION

58
Q

The difference in volume and mass between the end point and equivalence point.

A

TITRATION ERROR

59
Q

Chemical which changes color at or very near the equivalence point.

Indicators are also very weak acids and bases.
