Abstract
The tubular geometry of the electrode, by virtue of which the electrode can permit continuous analysis of electroactive solutions, has been made use of in developing an automatic technique for carrying out amperometric titrations, the tubular graphite electrode acting as an indicator electrode.
A correlation, describing the time required for the completion of a particular titration in terms of relevant parameters such as the concentrations of the titrant and the titration solutions, volumetric flow rate of the titrant/titration solution and the total volume of the titration solution, has been derived theoretically and verified experimentally. Knowing the time required for the completion of a particular titration from the titration curve recorded automatically, the concentration of the titration solution can be easily calculated.
