Concepts In Analytical Chemistry
The analytical process often begins with a question that is not phrased in terms of a chemical analysis. The question could be “Does lead in petrol enter our food supply?” or “Is this water safe to drink?” or “Does emission testing of automobiles reduce air pollution?” A scientist translates such questions into the need for particular measurements. An analytical chemist then must choose or invent ...
