41、57 % HI. The concentration of HI in thereagent used should be not less than 56.5 %. The blankdetermination, which is affected primarily by free iodine in thereagent, should require no more than 0.5 mL of 0.1 N sodiumthiosulfate (Na2S2O3) standard solution. If necessary, the acidmay be purified by ad

42、ding to it a small amount of redphosphorus and boiling for 20 to 30 min in a hood whilepassing a stream of CO2into the liquid. Distillation is thencarried out behind a safety-glass shield in a hood, using anall-glass apparatus with a slow stream of CO2running throughthe receiver. Under some conditio

43、ns, the poisonous gas phos-phine (PH3) is formed during distillation, and this may unitewith molecular iodine to form phosphorus triiodide (PI3) whichmay explode on contact with air. It is, therefore, advisable tokeep the current of CO2going after the distillation is endedand until the apparatus has

44、 cooled; this will prevent air frombeing sucked into the apparatus. Put the purified HI in small,brown, glass-stoppered bottles, previously swept out with CO2,and seal the stoppers with molten paraffin. Store in a darkplace. To minimize decomposition of HI due to contact withair, run CO2into the bot

46、900 mL of glacial acetic acid and 100 mLof acetic anhydride.27.8 Potassium Iodide (KI).27.9 Sodium Acetate Solution (220 g/L)Dissolve 220 g ofanhydrous sodium acetate in water and dilute to 1 L.27.10 Sodium Thiosulfate, Standard Solution (0.1 N)Dissolve 25 g of sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O35H2O) in 20

47、0mL of water and dilute to 1 L. Use freshly boiled and cooledwater. It is preferable to allow the solution to stand for a fewdays before standardization. Standardize the solution against0.1000 N potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) solution preparedby dissolving exactly 4.9037 g of K2Cr2O7(National Instit

By means of aburet, measure accurately 35 to 45 mL of the K2Cr2O7solutioninto a 250-mL Erlenmeyer flask. Add2gofKIand50mLofsulfuric acid (H2SO4, 1 + 9) and allow to stand for about 5 min.Titrat

At the end point,the blue color of the starch indicator will be destroyed, leavingthe pale green color of the chromate ion. The normality of theNa2S2O3, solution should be checked at least once a week.Calculate the normality, N, of the Na2S2O3solution as follows:N 5 A/B! 3 0.1 (5)where:A = 0.1000 N K2Cr2O7solution added, mL, andB =Na2S2O3solution required for the titration, mL.As an alternative procedure, the Na2S2O3solution may bestandar
