VOGEL'S TEXTBOOK OF
QUANTITATIVE CHEMICAL ANALYSIS
Very few chemistry books
survive to a sixth edition having had a lifetime of sixty years. Dr. Arthur I. Vogel's
classic introduction to analytical methods has provided generations of chemists with a
basis for the teaching, learning and application of analytical chemistry.
Analysts need to understand
the concepts behind methods and Vogel's Quantitative Chemical Analysis provides clear
introductions to all the key analytical methods including those involving advanced
computerised equipment available in many analytical laboratories. The editors have built
further on the work of Dr Vogel, modernising the approach while retaining the analytical
concepts and ideas which were built into the original work.
This new edition (the first
for ten years) has been extensively revised to take into account developments in
instrumental procedures and coupled techniques whilst maintaining the book's focus on
quantitative chemical and problem-specific analyses. With excellent cross-referencing this
book provides a wealth of examples and tables of data.
FEATURES:
comprehensive coverage of
methods with detailed easy-to follow practical experiments
basic analytical theory which
is essential for understanding the subject
greatly expanded sections on
instrumental analysis including aspects of miniaturisation
increased emphasis on
minor/trace component analysis and revised statistical handling of data
new chapters on sampling,
mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance
chemometrics arid statistics
are clearly explained
