Detailed explanation-1: -Gravimetric analysis is a method in analytical chemistry to determine the quantity of an analyte based on the mass of a solid. Example: Measuring the solids suspended in the water sample – Once a known volume of water is filtered, the collected solids are weighed.

Detailed explanation-2: -Gravimetric methods: determine the mass of analyte or some compound chemically related to it. 2. Volumetric methods use the volume of a solution containing sufficient reagent to react with the analyte.

Detailed explanation-3: -Gravimetric analysis describes a set of methods used in analytical chemistry for the quantitative determination of an analyte (the ion being analyzed) based on its mass.

Detailed explanation-4: -Gravimetric analysis is a quantitative method for accurately determining the amount of a substance by selective precipitation of the substance from an aqueous solution. The precipitate is separated from the remaining aqueous solution by filtration and is then weighed.
