Buzz words for analysis

So i've found the following list.

Gravimetric: precipitate

UV : colour compound or absorbance or a graph of absorbance.

IR: Bonding, wavelengths

Mass spec: fragments, overall 3d structure

X-Ray crystal: 3d structure (mainly proteins)

Chromatography: SEPARATION

HPLC: large complex molecules.

GC: Organic chem usually with high volatility

AAS (always makes me laugh that abbreviation): Metals and is accurate.

Any other way to determine which to use in a multi choice? (or Short answer?)

I think that's all of them?

2009: Math methods: 50, Psychology: 44
2010: chem 47, further 48, Spesh 49 fml seriously and other yr 11 subs.
2011: Holidaying, screw school.
No. Not azn.

Do we need to know about X-ray crystallography ?

Your list seems fairly concise.

Is this a bad thing? being concise that is?

Which subs?

Quite right, however i'm referring to words which just jump out at you in the exam which you just *know* has to be *this one* or that.

We don't. Its just it turns up in neap sometimes. You might as well know it.


EDIT: more buzz words  :smitten::
