Editor's Notes

  • #11 Methods: 1) Packets of walnut shells, corncob, saw dust (mix of various types of wood), woodshavings and activated charcoal powder were made using coffee filter paper and placed into a container Above media known to adsorb chromium 2) Chromium solution was diluted by a factor of 10^6 in order to use UV vis throughout entire sample range (the UV Vis test kit used only measured accurate values 300ppb and below), it was then added to reactor for single batch 3) Samples of the solution were collected every 5 minutes for an hour 4) Samples were analyzed using UV Vis and titration

  • #14 Method is use only for low concentration of Cr -- 1.0 ppm or 0.1 mg/L or less must dilute sample before using test machine measures the absorbance of green light and gives reading in ppb Only measures Cr(VI); if want to measure Cr(III) in sample, must convert to Cr(VI) first. 1,5-Diphenylcarbazide reacts with Cr(VI) ions under acidic condition to create a pink solution Diphenylcarbazide is oxidized to Diphenylcarbazone, while Cr(VI) is reduced to Cr (III) the intensity of color is dependent on the concentration of Cr Source: google book formula
  • #15 Describe what Titration is Redox reaction Dichromate reacts with iodide in acidic solution to form elemental iodine Solution becomes more yellow after reaction sulfamicacid, KI, Dichromate: https://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080815061454AAF0vsr Also see “Production and Use” section of : http://www.britannica.com/science/iodine Compared to clock experiment reaction
  • #16 The iodine from the previous reaction reacts with excess iodide ions to form triiodide 2 drops of starch indicator is added to the mixture A black-blue complex is formed from triiodide and the starch indicator https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starch_indicator https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodine_test
  • #17 A thiosulfate solution is added drop by drop The thiosulfate reacts with the triiodide in the black-blue complex to form the iodide ion There is no more triiode to create the black-blue complex, making the mixture clear The amount of Chromium is figured in relation to the amount of triiode, which is figured out by the known amount of thiosulfate added. http://chemed.chem.purdue.edu/genchem/topicreview/bp/ch19/oxred_2.php
