There are a wide variety of techniques used for analysis, from simple weighing (gravimetric) to titrations (titrimetric)to very advanced techniques using highly specialized instrumentation. The most common techniques used in analytical chemistry are the following:
- gravimetry
- titrimetry
- electrometry
- spectroscopy
- chromatography
There are many more techniques that have specialized applications, and within each major analytical technique there are many applications and variations of the general techniques.
