Measurement principle of quantitative analysis based on measurement of mass.

Note 1: Gravimetry may be operated as a primary reference measurement procedure, as the mass
standard that calibrates a balance is not a mass of analyte.

Note 2: The analyte to be determined is separated from the sample in a weighable form (e.g., by
precipitation), and its mass or amount of substance is calculated from the mass of the weighed
compound whose stoichiometric composition must be exactly known.
