Analytical Chemistry
- Analytical chemistry deals with separating, identifying, and quantifying the relative amounts of the components of an analyte.
- Analyte = the thing to analyzed; the component(s) of a sample that are to be determined

Pharmaceutical analysis and its scope
1. Clinical analysis - Blood, urine, feces, cellular fluids, etc., for use in diagnosis.
2. Pharmaceutical analysis - Establish the physical properties, toxicity, metabolites, quality control, etc.
3. Environmental analysis - Pollutants, soil and water analysis, pesticides.
4. Forensic analysis - Analysis related to criminology; DNA finger printing, finger print detection; blood analysis.
5. Industrial quality control - Required by most companies to control product quality.
6. Bio analytical chemistry and analysis - Detection and/or analysis of biological components (i.e., proteins, DNA, RNA, carbohydrates, metabolites, etc.). This often overlaps many areas. Develop new tools for basic and clinical research.

Titrimetric Method of the Analysis: The Basic Concepts and Classification
• Titrimetry - Any method in which volume is the signal
• Titrimetry: In which we measure the volume of a reagent reacting stoichiometrically with the analyte
• Titrimetric method is also referred as Volumetric analysis
Volumetric analysis
It is a general term for a method in quantitative chemical analysis in which the amount of a substance is determined by the measurement of the volume that the substance occupies
It is commonly used to determine the unknown concentration of a known reactant
Volumetric analysis is often referred to as titration, a laboratory technique in which one substance of known concentration and volume is used to react with another substance of unknown concentration
The Basic Principles of Volumetric Analysis
• The one solution to be analyzed contains an unknown amount of chemicals
• The reagent of known concentration reacts with chemical of unknown amount in the presence of an indicator to show the endpoint
• The volumes are measured by a titration which completes the reaction between reagent and solution
• The volume and concentration of reagent used in the titration give the amount of reagent in moles
• The amount of unknown chemical in the measured volume of solution is calculated by using the mole ratio of the equation
• The amount of unknown chemical in the original sample is calculated by the amount of unknown chemical in the measured volume
Definition of Terms: Used in Analysis
Titration: It is a procedure for determining the concentration of a solution by allowing a carefully measured volume to react with a standard solution of another substance, whose concentration is known
•A + T → products A: analyte T: titrant
Titrant: A reagent of exactly known concentration that is used in titrimetric analysis
Titrate: A test solution is one whose concentration is to be estimated
Indicator: Some substances added to which are basically organic dyes, used to detect the end point
End point
– The point at which the reaction is observed to be completed is the end point
– The end point in volumetric method of analysis is the signal that tells the analyst to stop adding reagent and make the final reading on the burette
– Endpoint is observed with the help of indicator
Equivalent point
– The point at which an equivalent or stoichiometric amount of titrant is added to the analyte based on the stoichiometric equation
Requirements in Titration
• Stoichiometric reaction
• Rapid rate reaction
• Quantitative reaction (99.9%complete at stoichiometry)
• Have a defined end or equivalence point
• Reaction should have no side reaction, no interference from other foreign substances
• Must have some indication of end of reaction, such as color change, sudden increase in pH, zero conductivity, etc
• Known relationship between endpoint and equivalence point
The Different Glass Ware Used in Volumetric Analysis
• Volumetric analysis involves a few piece of equipment:
Pipette – for measuring accurate and precise volumes of solutions
Burette – for pouring measured volumes solutions
Conical flask – for mixing two solutions
Wash bottles –these contain distille water for cleaning equipment
Funnel – for transfer of liquids without spilling
Volumetric flasks –a flask used to make accurate volumes for solutions of kn concentration
Experimental Set-up in the Laboratory
• Two solutions are used: They are prepared according to the strength as per the requirements
– The solution of unknown concentration
– The solution of known concentration – this is also known as the standard solution
• Write a balanced equation for the reaction between your two chemicals
• Clean all glassware to be used with distilled water. The pipettes and burettes will be rinsed with the solutions which are been used for the experiment
Process – The Setup
• The burette is attached to a clamp stand above a conical flask
• The burette is filled with standard solution (in this case a yellow standard solution)
• A pipette is used to measure an aliquot of the other solution whose concentration has to be determined (in this case a purple solution unknown concentration) into conical flask
• Prepare a number of flasks repeat tests
• Last, an indicator is added to conical flask
Process – The Titration
• Read the initial level of liquid in the burett and make a note of it in the lab manual
• Turn the stop cock to add the standard solution from the burette into the conical flask Swirl the flask continuously
• So that every drop of analyte reacts with titran in presence of an indicator
• When the colour changes permanently, stop the addition of titrant read the final volume the volume change needs to be calculate (and written down). This volume is called titre
• Repeat the titration with a new flask until consecutive concordant readings are obtained
Summary:
Analytical Chemistry:
• Qualitative analysis: Determination of chemical identity of the species in the sample.
• Quantitative analysis: Determination of the amount of species or analytes, in numerical terms
