A Comparative Study of Spectrophotometric and Iodometric Back Titration Methods for Hydrogen Sulfide Determination in Anoxic Black Sea Waters
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Iodometric Back Titration (IBT) and Spectrophotometric (SPM) determination are two commonly used methods for the determination of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) concentration in sea water. These two methods were applied in parallel for analysis of Black Sea anoxic waters and artificial solutions containing different H2S concentrations. The results of the SPM and IBT methods are in agreement when the H2S concentration in sea water is higher than 30 pM and the precision of IBT is higher I than that of SPM method. However, an opposite trend appears when the concentration 1 of sulfide is less than 30 pM; moreover, the SPM method provided lower results than the IBT values. This apparent difference is most probably due to the presence of some hydrogen sulfide oxidation products (e.g., thiosulfate) consuming the iodine solution added to samples, but the complexing agent (N,Ndimethyl-p-phenylendiamine) used in SPM method, reacts with H2S only. t

متن کاملSensitive and rapid titrimetric and spectrophotometric methods for the determination of stavudine in pharmaceuticals using bromate-bromide and three dyes.
Four sensitive and rapid methods for the determination of stavudine (STV) in bulk drug and in dosage forms were developed and optimized. In titrimetry, aqueous solution of STV was treated with a known excess of bromate-bromide in HCl medium followed by estimation of unreacted bromine by iodometric back titration. Spectrophotometric methods involve the addition of a measured excess of bromate-br...
