Didymium or holmium oxide
determines the amount of light blocked by a particular matter in a turbid solution
TURBIDIMETRY
Measures the amount of light scattered by suspending particles
NEPHELOMETRY
it determines the amount of scattered light by a particulate matter suspended in a turbid solution
NEPHELOMETRY
Conform to the Nernst equation
2. Exhibit a potential that is constant
with time
3. Return to its original potential after
being subjected to small currents
4. Exhibit little hysteresis
Qualities of a good reference electrode
To deliver a constant voltage to the meter device.
REFERENCE ELECTRODE
Capable of responding to one specific ion only
ION SELECTIVE ELECTRODE (ISE)
Electric Potential is measured using the pH
Electrode.
pH ELECTRODE

Internal reference electrode
Consist of saturated calomel electrode
External reference electrode
consist of mercury that comes in contact with the solution and with the known concentration of potassium chloride
