In which type of quantitative analysis, the measured quantities range from 10 - 100 mg?

Qualitative analysis involves identifying chemicals through physical examination and chemical examination
Quantitative analysis deals with determining the concentration of the substance to be analyzed

According to the quantity measured:
- Macro-analysis: quantities starting from 100 mg and more
- Semi-micro-analysis: quantities ranging from 10-100 mg
- Micro-analysis: quantities not exceeding 1 mg
According to the physical state of the substance: methods may be classified according to the kind of analyzed material (e.g., food analysis and water analysis)
According to the process of measurement:
- Volumetric methods
- Gravimetric methods
- Instrumental methods

Involves measuring the volume of a solution of known concentration (standard solution) to determine the concentration of the analyte (sample)
Also known as titration, which is the capacity of the sample to combine with the suitable standard quantitatively through a quantitative reaction
Quantitative reactions involve:
- Weakly ionizable compounds
- Weak acid, weak base, sparingly soluble salts (precipitate), complex ion, and weak oxidant and reductant

Neutralization reaction:
- Formation of water (e.g., H+ + OH- → H2O)
- Displacement titration:
  - Formation of weakly ionizable acid (e.g., KCN + HCl → HCN + KCl)
  - Formation of weakly ionizable base (e.g., NH4Cl + NaOH → NH4OH + NaCl)
Formation of weakly ionizable salts:
- Reaction between a highly ionizable mercuric salt and chloride ion (e.g., Hg(NO3)2 + 2NaCl → HgCl2 + 2NaNO3)
Complexation reactions:
- Formation of inner complex or chelate (e.g., Ca2+ + H2Y2- → CaY2- + 2H+)
Electron transfer reactions (Redox reactions):
- Transfer of electrons between reactants followed by a change in oxidation number (e.g., Ce4+ + Fe2+ → Fe3+ + Ce3+)
