Practical Laboratory Skills Training Guides - Measurement of Mass (Paperback)

This guide explains the best methods for undertaking the measurement of mass, one of the most frequent operations in the analytical laboratory. It is a technique required when obtaining a known quantity of a sample for analysis; for preparation of analytical reagents; and for preparation of calibration standards etc. After an initial discussion of the units of mass and other terminology, the guide goes on to look at the types of balance and their features, followed by coverage of location, calibration, accuracy and use of the balance. Practical exercises are then provided. Measurement of Mass is one of the Practical Laboratory Skills Training Guides, a series that aims to make achieving best practice easy.
