Electroanalytical Methods Analytical techniques based on the electrochemical measurements are often refer to as electrochemical methods of analysis or simply as Electroanalytical methods. This method of analysis involves the measurement of current, voltage or resistance alone or in combination. Sometime measurements are done as a function of time. Different Electroanalytical methods are given below. Elecrtoranlytical Technique- RajaRam

Basic Electrical Measurements Principle of Electrochemical Method of Analysis Basic Electrical Measurements Resistance, R Ohms Law V = IR Voltage, V Current, I These electrical properties are measured alone or in combination for analysis. Additional electro-analytical techniques are possible if these electrical properties are measured as a function of time. Elecrtoranlytical Technique- RajaRam

Elecrtoranlytical Technique- RajaRam Syllabus The following Electroanalytical techniques are included in Analytical Chemistry of Biochemistry 4th Semester of PU 1. Conductometry 2. Potentiometry 3. Amperometric Titration 4. Coulometry Titration 5. Polarography Elecrtoranlytical Technique- RajaRam
Main Branches of Electroanalytical Chemistry 1. Conductometry : Measure the conductance of a solution. Direct conductometry and conductometric titration. 2. Potentiometry: Measure the potential of electrochemical cells without drawing substantial current pH measurements, ion-selective electrodes, potentiometric titration 3. Amperometric Titration: Measures current as a function of titrant. 4. Coulometric Titration: Measures the quantity of charge required to drive an electrolytic oxidation/reduction to completion Polarography: Measures current as a function of applied potential in a dropping mercury electrode. Potentiometric titration endpoint determination has several advantages, including applicability to turbid solutions. KF uses bipotentiometric endpoint determination with Pt electrodes.
