E1.
Explain how qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis of metals in oil are used to
identify wear of engine components.
AE1.
Qualitative analysis is used to determine which metals are present.
Quantitative analysis indicates the amount of each metal present.
E2.
What analytical techniques are used to determine the level of metals in oils?
AE2.
atomic emission spectroscopy, atomic absorption spectroscopy
Q2.

that are based on the:
a physical properties of the substance being tested.
b chemical properties of the substance being tested

qualitative analysis
A quantitative analysis might be reported as 500 g of this produce contains
approximately 300 g sugar, 100 g fruit, 500 mg pectin and 400 mg food acid.
Q5.
Which of the following represent example(s) of quantitative analysis?
i A sample of fries seasoning contains salt, chicken extract, rice flour, paprika
and chilli.
ii Dry air contains 78% nitrogen vol/vol.
iii A sample of iron ore weighs 23.5 kg.
iv A chocolate biscuit contains 2.3 g protein, 6.6 g fat and 24.4 g carbohydrate per
100 g serve.
A iv only
B i and iv
C ii and iv
D ii, iii and iv
A5.
C. Quantitative analysis gives information about the concentration of a material or
materials in a sample; this can be in terms of w/w, v/v, ppm, %, mol L1, etc.
Statement I does not give the concentration of the substances. Statement III gives the
mass of the sample but not the concentration of iron ore.
Q9.
Obtain several brands of spring water and compare the information provided on the
labels.
a What evidence is there that the water has been subject to quality control?
b How might this control have been carried out?
c Compare the ions that that each contains. Are all samples of spring water the
same? How do they differ?
list of ingredients
chemical analysis
Different brands of spring water may contain different mineral ions or different
amounts of each depending on its source.
