1.1 What is Analytical Chemistry?

Analytical chemistry is the science of identification of

substances “Qualitative analysis”, determination of their

amount “Quantitative analysis”, detection of its presence

“Detection”, and separation of complex mixture into

individual components “Separation science”.

Importance of Analytical Chemistry: Examples
• Chemical structure of nano-materials and
In nano-science their concentration.

Drugs analysis, drug industry, pharmacokinetics,


In pharmacy and quality control .

• Clinical analysis such assay of glucose level,


In medicine blood electrolytes and gases help diagnose
diseases.

• Food analysis such as determination of the


In food industry protein content in food.

In Industry • Analysis of steel during production.

In environmental
• Measurement of gaseous pollutants such as
protection CO, SOx and NOx. 7
1.2 Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis

Quantitative Analysis
How much is Present?
Determination of the amount of
substance/substances in the samples

Analytical
Chemistry
Qualitative Analysis
What is present?
Identification of elements, ions, or
compounds in a sample

1.3 The analytical process: General steps
in chemical analysis
Define problem Is underground water contaminated with arsenic?

Select a method Search literature or invent a method

Sampling Obtain representative sample

Involves sample dissolution, removal of interference, and


Sample preparation
preparing replicate samples, separation if required

Analysis Analyze replicate samples and measure uncertainty

Report Write a clear report including results and methods

1.4 Method Validation

✓A new method can be validated by


comparison with another accepted standard
method.

✓Certified standards and reference materials


may be analyzed to assure accuracy of the
method (recovery method).

15
1.5 Important terms

Analyte • Is the substance measured or analyzed.

Analyst •Person who is performing the analysis

• Analysis of part or all constituent of


Analyze the sample.

Determine • The process of measuring the analyte.

16
Analysis
Complete: If all constituents of the
sample are analyzed

Partial: If only one constituent is


analyzed
17
Analyte classification according to its amount

Major:
> 1%
Minor:
0.1 -1 %
Trace:
< 0.1%
Ultra trace:
≤ 1 ppm (0.0001%)

18
1.6 Some useful web sites
➢See pages 16 -17 for very useful web sites related
to analytical chemistry.
➢Each student should visit such web sites
occasionally during the course of studying
analytical chemistry to deepen his/her
understanding.
