Atomic Absorption and Plasma Spectroscopy - Analytical Chemistry by Open Learning

Atomic Absorption and Plasma Spectroscopy Second Edition Atomic Absorption and Plasma Spectroscopy incorporates two widely used and well established analytical chemistry techniques. This second edition follows an extremely successful first edition, Atomic Absorption and Emission Spectroscopy, and takes into account the increasing contribution in recent years of plasma emission spectroscopy to this important field. Plasma–based techniques are discussed in detail and the coupting of plasma spectroscopy with mass spectrometry is also considered. This highly readable text first introduces the reader to the subject and then, by means of self–assessment questions, regular summaries and lists of learning objectives, allows the readers to learn more about this important subject at their own pace. Atomic Absorption and Plasma Spectroscopy is an excellent introduction to the topic for the practising analyst. Analytical Chemistry by Open Learning This series provides a uniquely comprehensive and integrated coverage of analytical chemistry, focusing on basic concepts, classical methods, instrumental techniques and applications. The learning objectives of each text are clearly identified and the student′s understanding of the material is constantly challenged by self–assessment questions with reinforcing or remedial responses. The overall objective of Analytical Chemistry by Open Learning is to enable the student to select and apply appropriate methods and techniques to solve analytical problems, and to interpret the results obtained.
