Answer to Question #19267 in Organic Chemistry for vivek

Question

what is volumetric analysia and qualitative analysis ? & and what is the difference between these.

Answer 1

Volumetric analysis
Volumetric analysis is a widely-used quantitative analytical method. As the name implies, this method involves the measurement of volume of a solution of known concentration which is used to determine the concentration of the analyte.

Qualitative analysis
Qualitative analysis is used to separate and detect cations and anion s in a sample substance. In an educational setting, it is generally true that the concentrations of the ions to be identified are all approximately 0.01 M in an aqueous solution. The 'semimicro' level of qualitative analysis employs methods used to detect 1-2 mg of an ion in 5 mL of solution.
