The Effect of Hydrogen Ion Concentration upon the Determination of Calcium

چکیده
McCrudden’s (1, 2) method has come to be recognized as the best for the accurate determination of calcium. The method is to precipitate the calcium as oxalate in the presence of sufficient ammonium chloride to hold the magnesium oxalate in solution, and of sufficient acid to hold the calcium oxalate partly in solution. Sodium acetate is then added to decrease the acidity and to precipitate the rest of the calcium oxalate on the crystals already formed. Thus, large crystals are made which are easy to filter and are not contaminated with occluded magnesium or calcium ph0sphate.l The amount of acetate is selected so as to give a solution not acid enough to dissolve the calcium oxalate, nor alkaline enough, if cold, to allow calcium phosphate to precipitate. These directions are empiric and must be followed accurately, as the author cautions2 Just what determines the amount of acetate is not definite, for he states that in the ash of feces 15 instead of 8 cc. are required.3 The sodium acetate added regulates the acidity of the solution. Unfortunately, at the time McCrudden wrote his article, Sbrensen’s (3), Michaelis’ (4), and Clark’s (5) monographs on hydrogen ion concentration were not published. In 1913, Hildebrand (6) of the Bureau of Standards showed the necessity of a systematic investigation of analytical methods with regard to the hydrogen ion concentration. Such information is not as yet available for

Fractional flow analysis confirms the advantages of surfactant alternative gas injection (SAG) in enhanced oil recovery, but an adsorption phenomenon that has been affected by several factors, weakens the effectiveness of SAG injection. In this study, the effects of sacrificial agent, gas phase, and surfactant concentration on adsorption density on silica mineral were investigated by static and...
