About This Book
The new edition of the popular introductory analytical chemistry textbook, providing students with a solid foundation in all the major instrumental analysis techniques currently in use
The third edition of Chemical Analysis: Modern Instrumentation Methodsand Techniques provides an up-to-date overview ofthe common methods used for qualitative, quantitative, and structural chemical analysis. Assuming no background knowledge in the subject, this student-friendly textbook covers thefundamental principles and practical aspects of more than 20 separation and spectroscopicmethods, as well as other importanttechniques such as elemental analysis, electrochemistryandisotopic labelling methods.
Avoiding technical complexity and theoretical depth, clearand accessible chapters explain the basic concepts of each method and its corresponding instrumental techniquesâsupported by explanatory diagrams, illustrations, and photographs of commercial instruments.The new editionincludes revised coverage of recentdevelopments insupercritical fluid chromatography, capillary electrophoresis, miniaturized sensors, automatic analyzers, digitization and computing power, and more. Offering a well-balanced introduction to a wide range of analytical and instrumentation techniques, this textbook:
- Provides a detailed overview of analysis methods used in the chemical and agri-food industries, medical analysis laboratories, and environmental sciences
- Covers various separation methods including chromatography, electrophoresisandelectrochromatography
- DescribesUV andinfrared spectroscopy, fluorimetry and chemiluminescence, x-ray fluorescence, nuclear magnetic resonanceand other commonspectrometric methods such atomic or flame emission, atomic absorption and mass spectrometry
- Includes concise overview chapters on thegeneral aspects of chromatography, sample preparation strategies, and basic statistical parameters
- Features examples, end-of-chapter problems with solutions, and a companionwebsite featuring PowerPoint slides for instructors
Chemical Analysis: Modern Instrumentation Methods and Techniques, Third Edition, is the perfect textbook for undergraduates taking introductory courses in instrumental analytical chemistry, students in chemistry, pharmacy, biochemistry, and environmental science programs looking for information onthe techniques and instruments available, and industry technicians working with problems of chemical analysis.
Review of Second Edition:
