Analytical Chemistry Reference from C.H.I.P.S.

Handbook of Basic Tables for Chemical Analysis

Second Edition
by Thomas J. Bruno
and Paris D.N. Svoronos


  • Compiles a huge array of useful and important data into a series of tables that provide important data in a single, convenient source for use in the analytical laboratory
  • Provides a self-contained resource that covers not only how to carry out a lab procedure but how to carry it out safely
  • Includes valuable information on chemical hazards, electrical hazards, and suggests how to select laboratory gloves, apparel, and respirators
  • Lists chemical incompatibilities of various compounds
  • Covers both "instrumental" methods and "wet" chemical techniques

The Handbook of Basic Tables for Chemical Analysis, Second Edition is your one-stop source for the information needed to design chemical analyses.

New to this edition:

  • New chapters on solutions, electroanalytical methods, electrophoresis, and laboratory safety
  • An expanded section on gas chromatography that includes data on compounds that attack common detectors
  • New information on detector optimization
  • An updated section on high performance liquid chromatography that provides the most recent chiral stationary phases, detector information, and revised solvent tables
  • Updated information on the most useful "wet" chemistry methods
  • Enlarged section of Miscellaneous Tables

Going far beyond the landmark first edition in terms of scope and applications, the second edition provides current and updated data culled from a wide range of resources and consolidated into a concise yet easy-to-use format. The book's laser-like focus on core information gives you the knowledge you need when you need it - at the decision point.
