38
Steps of the Analytical Process
1. Problem Definition 2. METHOD SELECTION 3. SAMPLING 4. SAMPLE PREPARATION 5. ANALYSIS (Separation) 6. CALCULATION AND REPORTING (Measurement)
39
– identify the problem and formulate questions * What is the problem? What needs to be found? Qualitative and/or quantitative? * What will the information be used for? Who will use it? * When will it be needed? * How accurate and precise does it have to be? * What is the budget?
PROBLEM DEFINITION
40
select method of analysis  FACTORS * Sample type, size of sample, sample preparation * Concentration and range (sensitivity needed) * Selectivity needed (interferences) * Accuracy/precision needed * Tools/instruments available * Expertise/experience * Cost * Speed * Does it need to be automated? * Are methods available in chemical literature? * Are standard methods available?
METHOD SELECTION
41
– obtain bulk sample and extract smaller laboratory sample from bulk  Process of collecting a small mass of a material whose composition accurately represents the bulk of the material being sampled FACTORS * Sample type/homogeneity/size * Size: macro, semi-macro, micro, ultra * Type: major, minor, trace, ultra * Sampling statistics/errors
SAMPLING
42
prepare sample for analysis  FACTORS * Solid, liquid, or gas? * Dissolve? * Ash of digest? * Chemical separation or masking of interferences needed? * Need to concentrate analyte? * Need to change (derivatize) the analyte for detection? * Need to adjust solution conditions (pH, add reagents)?
SAMPLE PREPARATION
43
analytical measurement of the analyte in question  Perform any necessary chemical separations: * Distillation * Precipitation * Solvent extraction * Solid phase extraction * Chromatography (may be done as part of the measurement step) * Electrophoresis (may be done as part of the measurement step)  Perform the Measurement: * Calibration * Validation/controls/blanks * Replicates
ANALYSIS (Separation)
44
– calculate results, interpret/present data and draw conclusion. Give recommendation. * Statistical analysis (reliability) * Report results with limitations/accuracy information
CALCULATION AND REPORTING (Measurement)
45
Samples of about the same size that are carried through an analysis in exactly the same way
REPLICATES
46
To improve the reliability and to obtain information about the variability of results, two to five portions, AKA replicates of a sample are carried through an entire analytical procedure.
REPLICATES
47
Individual results from a set of measurements are seldom the same, so we usually consider the “best” estimate to be the central value for the set.
REPLICATES
48
To determine the central value, we can either use the MEAN or the MEDIAN
MEASURES OF CENTRAL VALUE OR TENDENCY
49
the sum of numbers (replicate measurements) divided by number of measurements in the set; Similar to average
MEAN
50
the middle value in a set of that has been arranged in numerical (increasing or decreasing) order
MEDIAN
51
Used when a set of data contains an outlier
MEDIAN
52
a result that differs significantly / far away from others in the set. It can have a significant effect on the MEAN of the set but has NO effect on the MEDIAN.
outlier
53
The _______ will not discriminate the outlier
median
54
Construct the formula of the Mean with these given values: 65.5 66.7 68.8 69.1 69.2 70.0
(65. 5 + 66. 7 + 68. 8 + 69. 1 + 69. 2 + 70. 0)/6 = Mean
55
Construct the formula of the Median with these given values: 65.5 66.7 68.8 69.1 69.2 70.0
(68. 8 + 69. 1)/2=Median
56
ANALYTICAL MEASUREMENTS(A & P):
ACCURACY & PRECISION
57
describes the nearness of an experimental value or a mean to the true value. Although the true value can never be exactly known, accepted value is often used.
ACCURACY
58
statistically measured through absolute or relative error
Accepted value
59
refers to the agreement between values in a set of data (closeness of data).
PRECISION
60
It describes the reproducibility of measurements
PRECISION
61
PRECISION is Statistically measured through:
▪ Standard deviation ▪ Variance ▪ Coefficient of variation ▪ Other measures
62
MEASUREMENT OF ACCURACY: You determine the error first before the accuracy with these 2 measurements. What are those?
ABSOLUTE ERROR, RELATIVE ERROR
63
is equal to the difference between the actual reading Xi, and the true (or accepted) value Xt; bears a sign
ABSOLUTE ERROR
64
describes the error in relation to the magnitude of the true value, and may, therefore, be more useful than considering the absolute error in isolation
RELATIVE ERROR
65
EA = Xi – Xt (lowerscript ang A)
(ABSOLUTE ERROR)
66
Et =( (Xi−Xt) / Xt) × 100%
(RELATIVE ERROR)
67
Where Xi =
actual reading
68
Xt =
= true or accepted value
69
