This volume provides a practical, intuitive approach to electroanalytical chemistry, presenting fundamental concepts and experimental techniques without the use of technical jargon or unnecessarily extensive mathematics. This edition offers new material on ways of preparing and using microelectrodes, the processes that govern the voltammetric behavior of microelectrodes, methods for characterizing chemically modified electrodes, electrochemical studies at reduced temperatures, and more. The authors cover such topics as analog instrumentation, overcoming solution resistance with stability and grace in potentiostatic circuits, conductivity and conductometry, electrochemical cells, carbon electrodes, film electrodes, microelectrodes, chemically modified electrodes, mercury electrodes, and solvents and supporting electrolytes.

The Third Edition of this established work on chemical instrumentation has been completely rewritten and updated to account for the advances made since the Second Edition came out in 1973. More main methods of measurement are presented, and there is extended coverage of chromatography and electrochemistry. Most of the material is new--including coverage of microprocessors and microcomputers, statistical control of measurement quality, quantification and extraction of information, x-ray fluorescence spectrometry, surface spectrometric techniques, and chromatography and HPLC. The quality and range of the worked examples have been improved, and there are end-of-chapter exercises.

The only self-contained modern laboratory manual for advanced undergraduate courses in instrumental analysis. Consists of over 50 experiments demonstrating the theory and practice of electrochemical methods, methods based on electromagnetic radiation, and separation methods. Experiments are introduced with a review of the physical principles on which the experimental procedures are based.
