38
Q

particle size is influenced by experimental variables such as

  2. Fajan method
65
Q

titration technique that determines the concentration of chloride ions in a solution by using silver nitrate as a standard solution

A

mohr method

66
Q

limitations of mohr method

A
  1. the pH of the medium must be from 6-10
  2. In alkaline medium: Ag+ will precipitate as oxide
  3. this will interfere with the titration due to pptn of Ag2O before Ag2CrO2 where Ksp (Ag2O) < Ksp (Ag2CrO2) (+ve error)
  4. in the presence of ammonium salts, the pH must not exceed 8, free NH4 is released which dissolves AgCl ppt
  5. interfering ions (cations which give insoluble CrO4²- salts must be absent and anions such as AsO4²-, CO3²-, and PO4³- interfere by forming insoluble Ag salts in neutral or alkaline solutions
67
Q

the end point is detected by using absorption indicators that is absorbed on the surface of the precipitate immediately after the equivalence point

A

fajan method

68
Q

limitations of Fajans method

A
  1. coagulation of the precipitate must avoid sharp endpoint if surface area is large (increase absorption of indicator) — dextrine (protective coolloid) keep the ppt highly dispersed
  2. absorption indicators enhance the tendency of silver halides toward photodecomposition, which blackens the ppt — titration must be done rapidly in subdued light
  3. the titration solution must he controlled to ensure the indicator will exist in its ionized form — fluorescein (pKa = 7) operates in solution of pH 7 or more
