Analytical Chemicals
Analytical chemicals are specialized chemicals used for performing chemical analysis, including solvents like acetone, methanol, and hexane, acids like hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid, bases like sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide, indicators for titrations, and other reagents specifically designed for precise measurements and identification of substances within a sample, often with high purity and known concentrations to ensure accurate results.
Examples of common analytical chemicals:
Solvents: Acetone, methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile, dichloromethane, hexane
Acids: Hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, perchloric acid
Bases: Sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide
Indicators: Phenolphthalein, bromothymol blue, methyl orange
Reducing agents: Sodium thiosulfate, ascorbic acid
Oxidizing agents: Potassium permanganate, potassium dichromate
