Analytical Chemistry
The science seeks ever improved means of measuring the chemical

composition of natural and artificial materials by using techniques to
identify the substances which may be present in a material and to
determine the exact amounts of the identified substance. Analytical
chemistry involves the analysis of matter to determine its composition
and the quantity of each kind of matter that is present. Analytical
chemists detect traces of toxic chemicals in water and air. They also
develop methods to analyze human body fluids for drugs, poisons, and
levels of medication.
Analytical chemistry consists of:
(A) Qualitative analysis :which deals with the identification of

elements, ions, or compounds present in a sample (tells us what
chemicals are present in a sample).
(B) Quantitative analysis: which is dealing with the determination of

how much of one or more constituents is present (tells how much
amounts of chemicals are present in a sample).
This analysis can be divided into three branches:
(1) Volumetric analysis (Titrimetric analysis): The analyte reacts with

a measured volume of reagent of known concentration, in a process called
titration.
(2) Gravimetric analysis: usually involves the selective separation of

the analyte by precipitation, followed by the very non-selective
measurement of mass (of the precipitate).
(3) Instrumental analysis: They are based on the measurement of a

physical property of the sample, for example, an electrical property or the
absorption of electromagnetic radiation. Examples are spectrophotometry
(ultraviolet, visible, or infrared), fluorimetry, atomic spectroscopy
(absorption, emission), mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance
spectrometry (NMR), X-ray spectroscopy (absorption, fluorescence).
Solutions
Homogeneous mixture of two or more substance produce from dissolved

(disappeared) solute particle (ions, atoms, molecules) (lesser amount)
between solvent particle (larger amount).
*Concentrated Solution has a large amount of solute.
*Dilute Solution has a small amount of solute.
Classification of solutions according to amount of solute:
(1) Unsaturated solutions: if the amount of solute dissolved is less than

the solubility limit, or if the amount of solute is less than capacity of
solvent.
(2) Saturated solutions: is one in which no more solute can dissolve in a

given amount of solvent at a given temperature, or if the amount of solute
equal to capacity of solvent.
(3) Super saturated solutions: solution that contains a dissolved

amount of solute that exceeds the normal solubility limit (saturated
solution). Or a solution contains a larger amount of solute than capacity
of solvent at high temperature.
How do we express concentrations of solutions
1-A -Molarity concentration for solutions prepared from dissolving solid

solute in liquid solvent
Molarity:- defined as a number of solute moles dissolved in solution

volumes in liter.
Example (1):-A solution is prepared by dissolving 1.26 gm AgNO3 in a

250 mL volumetric flask and diluting to volume. Calculate the molarity
of the silver nitrate solution. How many millimoles AgNO3 were
dissolved.
Solution:
Example (2):-How many grams Na2SO4 should be weight out to prepare
500 mL of a 0.100 M solution.
1-B:-Molarity concentration for solution prepared from dissolved liquid

solute in liquid solvent.
Density: is the weight per unit volume at the specified temperature,

usually (gm/mL) or (gm/cm 3 ) or (gm.cm-3 ) in 20C (is the ratio of the
mass in (gm) and volume (mL).
Specific gravity (sp. gr.): defined as the ratio of the mass of a body (e.g.
a solution) usually at 20C to the mass of an equal volume of water at
4C (or sometimes 20C) or (is the ratio of the densities of the two
substances).
Example (3):-Calculate the molarity of 28.0% NH3, specific gravity
0.898. Solution:
Diluting Solutions
- We often must prepare dilute solutions from more concentrated stock

solutions.For example ,we may prepare a dilute HCL solution from
concentrated HCL to be used for titration .Or ,we may have a stock
standard solution from which we wish to prepare a series of more dilute
standards.The millimoles of stock solution taken for dilution will be
identical to the millimoles in the final diluted solution.
Mstock × Vstock = Mdiluted × Vdiluted
Example (4):-You wish to prepare a calibration curve for the

spectrophotometric determination of permanganate. You have a stock
0.100 M solution of KMnO4 and a series of 100 mL volumetric flasks.
What volumes of the stock solution will you have to pipet into the flasks
to prepare standards of 1.00, 2.00, 5.00, and 10.0x10-3 M KMnO4
solutions.
Formal concentration (Formality) F:- Chemists sometime use the term
formality for solutions of ionic salts that do not exist as molecules in the
solid or in solution. The concentration is given as formal(F).Formality is
numerically the same as molarity.
Example (5): Exactly 4.57 g of BaCl2.2H2O are dissolved in sufficient

water to give 250mL of solution. Calculate the formal concentration of
BaCl2 and Clin this solution.
Normality(N):
Normal concentration: Number of equivalent solute in solution volume in

liter.
Equivalent weight (Eq.wt):- is the formula weight divided by the

number of reacting units (H+ for acid-base and electron for oxidation-
reduction reaction).
Example (6) :-Calculate the normality of the solutions containing the
following: (a) 5.300gm/L Na2CO3 (when the CO3 -2 reacts with two
protons), (b) 5.267 gm/L K2Cr2O7 (the Cr6+ is reduced to Cr3+).
Solution:(a)
Molality m (Molal concentration):-The solution concentration produce

from dissolved solute (mole) in solvent (kg), molality does not change
with temperature and used for physicochemical measurements.
Example(7): -Calculate the molal concentration for solution preparing

from mixing 4 g NaOH with 500 g water.
Concentration by percent:-
Example(8):-Calculate the weight percentage of solution prepare by

mixing 5.0g AgNO3 with 100mL water (density 1g/cm3 ).
Example(9):-Calculate number of grams in 500mL saline solution (wt/v

% = 0.859%).
Example(10):-Calculate the volume percentage of solution preparing by
mixing 50mL methyl alcohol with 200mL water.
