Harris, Quantitative Chemical Analysis, 10e is a rigorous approach to analytical chemistry, written specifically to teach novice analytical students.
A focus on graphing and data analysis. Comprehension is increased when students have the opportunity for active learning and improving their problem-solving skills. The tenth edition has an increased emphasis on graphing and data analysis using scatter plots, calibration curves, and residual plots, and many new problems to reinforce these skills.
Applications to everyday life. Engaging with the material also enhances student comprehension and -- in the authors’ own words -- helps to “lighten the load of a very dense subject”.
- Chapter Openers with examples of analytical methods in everyday life are peppered throughout the text.
- Boxed applications show relevance of subject matter to the real world and to other science disciplines notably biology and medicine.
Chemical Demonstrations featured in Color Plates. The Color Plates located as an insert in the center of the book illustrate
- Grating dispersion
- Absorption spectra
- Atomic absorption flame stoichiometry
- An inductively coupled plasma torch
- Dithizone extraction
- Normal and reversed phase thin layer chromatography
- Cloud point extraction
Study and Reference Tools to help students learn the material and study for exams:
- Terms to Understand Essential vocabulary, highlighted in bold in the text, is collected at the end of the chapter.
- Glossary Key terms are defined in the glossary.
- Appendixes Tables of solubility products, acid dissociation constants, redox potentials, and formation constants appear at the back of the book. You will also find discussions of logarithms and exponents, an advanced treatment of propagation of uncertainty, nonlinear curve fitting, smoothing of data, balancing redox equations, normality, analytical standards, and a little bit about DNA.
- Notes and References Citations in the chapters appear at the end of the book.
- Inside Cover Tables of physical constants and properties of concentrated acids and bases are found on the page after the front inside cover.
Problem Solving Practice
Problem solving support is offered through Worked Examples, Test Yourself questions, and end-of-chapter Exercises and Problems.
- Exercises are the minimum set of problems that apply most major concepts of each chapter.
- Spreadsheets. Spreadsheets are tools that are indispensable for science and engineering. A few of the powerful features of Microsoft Excel are described as they are needed, including graphing in Chapters 2 and 4, statistical functions and regression in Chapter 4 and Appendix C, solving equations with Goal Seek and Solver, circular definitions in Chapters 7, 8, 13, and 19, and some matrix operations in Chapter 19. The text teaches you how to construct spreadsheets to simulate titrations and chromatographic separations, and to solve chemical equilibrium problems
- Problems at the end of the chapter cover the entire content of the book. Short answers to Problems are at the back of the book and complete solutions appear in the Solutions Manual.
Classic Coverage with Important Updates
Accurate, comprehensive, and current information.
- Revised chromatography and electrophoresis chapters written by new co-author Charles Lucy.
- Up-to-date foundational SI units. Analytical chemistry is a branch of the science of metrology, whose foundational SI units were overhauled in 2019. Table 1-1 introduces the new units. Regulatory agencies are introduced in Table 5-2, and examples of standard methods for water analysis are provided in Table 19-1.
- New Color Plates to this 10th edition include; 14, 16, 25, 26, 29, 31, and 36.
- New examples and applications A field-effect transistor “electronic nose,” a carbon fiber/carbon nanotube/platinum nanocrystalline electrode to measure O2 in brain cells; the electrochemical critical care analyzer used in hospitals; green fluorescent protein used in biological research; a nanopore device for sequencing nucleotide bases in DNA; and isotopically labeled mass tags to quantify proteins in biological research. For mass spectrometry, Figure 22-47 introduces matrix-assisted ionization and Figures 22-52 and 22-53 show state-of-the-art implementations of traveling wave ion mobility separation coupled to mass spectrometry.
- Updates to Spectrometry Chapters. Particular attention was paid to including state- of -the- art methods and techniques critical to this field. New material includes matrix-assisted ionization (Chapter 22), traveling wave ion mobility separation coupled to mass spectrometry (Chapter 22), how to select an appropriate atomic spectrometry technique for different problems (Chapter 21), and classification of solvents based on their environmental impact (Chapter 23).
- New Methods of Biochemical Analysis. Applications to biology and medicine continue to be a highlight of the text. Examples include: derivatization (Table 19-2), fluorescent proteins (Chapter 19 opener and Figure 19-19), cell density by optical scattering (Problem 19-17), immunodepletion (Section 26-4) and microwell plates (Figure 19-11).
- New Problems to Reinforce Graphing Skills. Along with updates to content, there are many new problems, particularly those that reinforce graphing and inspection of data. For example, problems 5-17, 5-29 (Gothan crime lab), 5-31, 18-21 (DNA concentration), 18-27, 20-14, 20-28, 20-37 (reading a log-log plot), 21-23, 21-24, 23-57).

Charles Lucy brings subject and classroom expertise to the 10th edition of Harris QCA. The spectrophotometry, spectroscopy, and spectrometry chapters have benefited most from Chuck’s authorship. Contributions of undergraduate student researchers and his new end-of-chapter problems emphasize graphical examination of data. Many of his problems incorporate primary sources and research publications, or make use of online tools such as a chromatography simulator with which you can observe the effects of varying experimental conditions.

Authors

Daniel C. Harris
Dan Harris was born in Brooklyn, NY in 1948. He earned degrees in Chemistry from MIT in 1968 and Caltech 1973 and was a postdoc at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York. After teaching at the University of California at Davis from 1975-1980 and at Franklin and Marshall College from 1980-1983, he moved to the Naval Air Systems Command at China Lake, California, where he is now a Senior Scientist and Esteemed Fellow. While teaching analytical chemistry at Davis, he wrote his lectures in bound form for his students. This volume caught the attention of publishers' representatives wandering through the college bookstore. The first edition of Quantitative Chemical Analysis was published in 1982. The first edition of Exploring Chemical Analysis came out in 1996. Both have undergone regular revision. Dan is also co-author of Symmetry and Spectroscopy published in 1978 by Oxford University Press and now available from Dover Press. His book Materials for Infrared Windows and Domes was published by SPIE press in 1999. Dan and his wife Sally were married in 1970. They have two children and four grandchildren. Sally's work on every edition of the books is essential to their quality and accuracy.

Charles A. Lucy
Chuck Lucy is Professor Emeritus and 3M National Teaching Fellow at the University of Alberta. He has published over 160 papers (26 with undergraduate researchers) and been on the editorial advisory boards of seven analytical journals, including Analytical Chemistry and Analyst. He is a passionate teacher who has taught classes ranging from large first-year courses to discovery-based graduate lectures. Chuck has organized teaching workshops and chemistry education symposia across North America and has received numerous awards, including the Chemical Institute of Canada Award for Chemistry Education and the American Chemical Society Division of Analytical Chemistry’s J. Calvin Giddings Award for Excellence in Education. After contributing content to several chapters in the ninth
edition of Quantitative Chemical Analysis, Chuck has broad responsibilities as a co-author of this tenth edition. The statistics, spectrophotometry, and chromatography chapters have benefited most from Chuck’s authorship. He highlights contributions of undergraduate student researchers and his new end-of-chapter problems emphasize graphical examination of data. Many of his problems incorporate primary sources and research publications, or make use of online tools such as a chromatography simulator with which you can observe the effects of varying experimental conditions.
