Appendix A (Informative)
Rough determination method of chloride ion content
The purpose of rough determination of chloride ion content is to estimate the chloride ion content in water samples by a simple and fast method, so as to determine the amount of added mercury sulfate.
A.1 Solvent preparation
A.1.1 Silver nitrate solution (c (AgNO3 ) = 0.141 mol/L)
Weigh 2.395 g of silver nitrate; dissolve it in a 100 ml volumetric flask; store it in a brown dropping bottle.
A.1.2 Potassium chromate solution (rho = 50 g/L)
Weigh 5 g of potassium chromate; dissolve it in a small amount of distilled water;
drop the silver nitrate solution until a red precipitate is formed. Shake well; let stand for 12 h; then, filter and use distilled water to dilute the filtrate to 100 ml.
A.1.3 Mercury sulfate solution (rho = 200 g/L)
Weigh 20 g of mercury sulfate; dissolve in 100 ml of 10% sulfuric acid solution;
store it in a dropping bottle.
A.1.4 Sodium hydroxide solution (rho = 10 g/L)
Weigh 1 g of sodium hydroxide and dissolve it in water; dilute to 100 ml; shake well; store in a dropping bottle.
A.2 Method steps
Take 10.0 ml of chlorine-containing water sample in a conical flask; dilute it to
20 ml; use sodium hydroxide solution (10 g/L) to adjust to neutrality (use a pH test paper to judge); add 1 drop of potassium chromate indicator (50 g/L); use a dropper to add silver nitrate solution (0.141 mol/L); shake continuously until a brick-red precipitate appears; record the number of drops; convert to volume;
roughly determine the chloride ion content in the water sample.
In order to easily and quickly estimate the chloride ion content, first estimate the volume of each drop of liquid that is dropped by the used dropper; calculate a rough conversion table of the chloride ion content and the number of drops (Table A.1) according to the volume of each drop in the chemical analysis (the example below is given as 0.04 ml).
