24、ompounds are not normally present in poly-butenes. However, if present in amounts which may affectchlorine results significantly, the following procedure is rec-ommended for removal of the sulfur compounds: Charge theaqueous phase from 9.4 to a separatory funnel and add 15 mLof ethyl ether to the mi

Allow thecontents of the funnel to stand until the two layers separate,then draw off the aqueous layer into a beaker. Extract theorganic layer with two 15-mL portions of water, add theaqueous extracts to the

26、beaker, and discard the organic layer.Add a few millilitres of 30 % hydrogen peroxide solution, heatthe contents of the beaker on a steam hot plate until the etherhas evaporated, then boil for 5 min, and cool to roomtemperature. Proceed in accordance with 9.6.9.6 Place the beaker on the titration st

Start the stirrer and record initial reading.Titrate slowly with 0.025 N AgNO3solution, recording read-ings after the addition of each drop of silver nitrate solution.Continue titrating until the point of maximum change inmillivolt or pH scale reading is passed.

28、Plot the volume ofsilver nitrate as abscissa and voltage or pH reading as ordi-nates. The end point is selected at the point of inflection of thecurve.NOTE 4If the chloride content is known to be high, larger incrementsmay be added until the titration is within 0.3 mL of the expected end point.9.7 B
