This book has been written keeping in mind the revised syllabus and related requirements of M.Sc. students, which can help them to perform their experiments efficiently. Most prominent feature of this book is that it provides a comprehensive approach to the theoretical and practical aspects of Analytical Chemistry in a simple way. The beauty of the book is embossed in the fact that the authors have tried their best to keep language simple, which a postgraduate student can understand. The procedure and observations are given pointwise which makes it easier to prepare the topics even for viva-voce. The details of all calculations and solution preparation are given in details.
By referring the book, the students can perform the experiments confidently. We indeed are very glad to launch this first practical handbook for M.Sc. Part – II (Sem. III and IV) Analytical students.
