Study Notes
Addition of Small Concentrated Doses
- Small concentrated doses are added to minimize the displacement of the water sample, ensuring accurate results.
Importance of Complete Submersion
- Containers used for samples are completely submerged to prevent the introduction of additional dissolved oxygen from the atmosphere.
EDTA Titration Details
- Indicator Used: Eriochrome Black T is the specific indicator for EDTA titration.
- Colour Change: The titration undergoes a colour shift from wine red to blue, indicating the end point.
- Condition Dependency: The colour change is dependent on pH, which is maintained using a pH buffer at a level of 9.
Winkler Titration Solutions
- Three solutions are added to the sample in the Winkler titration:
- Alkaline Potassium Iodide (KI)
- Concentrated Sulphuric Acid
- Manganese(II) Hydroxide (Mn(OH)₂)
