Science of chemical measurements: study of matter to reveal details such as
composition and structure: It is the application of chemistry used to separate, identify,
and quantify matter of interest (called analytes).
Quantitative analysis is the
Qualitative analysis is the process of determining the
process of identifying the numerical amount of the
analyte. analyte
Applications of Analytical chemistry
medicine, pharmacy , industry and quality control, forensics, agriculture, engineering, material scienceMethods used in Quantitative Analysis
Gravimetric: Determine analyte based on changes in mass eg: precipitation.
Volumetric: Also known as titration. Measurement of a volume of solution to
react with another compound, deriving information on concentration.
Spectroscopy: Interaction of analyte with electromagnetic radiation, especially
visible light.
Chromatography: Separation of mixture to isolate analyte. Mobile phase is forced
through a stationary phase, which causes separation.Basic Equipment for organic quantitative analysis

Theory: Organic acid and base can become ions in acid-base reactions where their solubility changes abruptly.
PhCOOH + NaHCO, = PhCOO-Na* + CO, + H,O
When an organic (EtOAc) solution of a mixture of benzoic acid (acid) and naphthalene (neutral), is extracted with aqueous
NaHCO, the resulting conjugate base should transfer from organic to aqueous layer, while naphthalene remains dissolved in
the organic layer. After extraction, benzoic acid can be recovered by acidifying the salt solution with mineral acid, thereby
precipitating the benzoic acid, as it not good in water. Then it can be filtered from aqueous layer.
Extraction: Extraction Is transferring @ solute from one phase to another. The solute can be removed from one phase by
adding to it an immiscible solvent in which the solute is more soluble. The transfer of solute occurs at the interface between
the two liquid phases. Therefore to make this transferring at an effective rate, you must need to shake the immiscible liquids
together, At equilibrium, C2/C1 = Ko, as the distribution coefficient. For any organic compound with Ky around 100, only one
extraction is sufficient and requires multiple extractions. Multiple extractions are more efficient than one extraction with a
large amount of solvent. To become a good extracting solvent, it should possess three features: practically immiscible,
dissolve the solute better than that of solvent from which it is being extracted and low boiling point.
Materials required: Beakers, glass rod, separatory/extracting funnel, conical funnel, Erlenmeyer flask, filter paper, ice-baths
Chemicals required: benzoic acid, naphthalene, EtOAc, aqueous NaHCO, (5%), HCI (2N, conc), pH paper etc.Procedure:
1, You will be given a mixture containing benzoic acid and naphthalene.
2. Take the Weigh of the mixture,
2. Dissolve the mixture in EtOAc.
3, Put the solution into a small separatory funnel of appropriate size
4, Extract it thoroughly with 5% aqueous NaHCO;,
5. Repeat the extraction with a volume of 5% aqueous NaHCO,
6. Draw off organic layer into an Erlenmeyer flask.
7. Collect the aq. layers into a beaker, cool it to ~15°C.
8, Add cold HCI until pH

10. Washed organic layer with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, evaporated out the organic layer using
steam bath and cool it ~50 °C.
