Summary of Test Method3.1 A known volume of the sample is dilut
6、ed with heavydistillate and shaken with aqueous iodine monochloride re-agent. Any tetraalkyl lead compounds present react with theiodine monochloride and are extracted into the aqueous phaseas the dialkyl lead compounds. The aqueous extract is sepa-rated from the gasoline and evaporated to low bulk
7、to decom-pose free iodine monochloride. Any organic matter present isremoved by oxidation with nitric acid, which also serves toconvert the dialkyl lead compounds into inorganic lead com-pounds. The residue is dissolved in distilled water and bufferedto pH 5 using sodium acetate-acetic acid buffer.
8、The leadcontent of the buffered solution is determined by titration withEDTA using xylenol orange as indicator.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method determines the concentration of leadalkyl additives in gasoline. These additives improve the anti-knock properties.5. Apparatus5.1 Separatory Fun

Dilute to about75 mL with distilled wate
18、r and add several drops of bromthy-mol blue indicator solution. Titrate with 1 + 1 ammonia solu-tion until the color of the solution just changes to blue; then add10 mLof sodium acetate-acetic acid buffer solution and 5 dropsof xylenol orange indicator solution. In the presence of lead thesolution w
19、ill have a rose color. Titrate with the EDTA solution.The color changes near the end point, this being indicated by asharp change from orange to a permanent bright lemon-yellow.6.5.2 Record the titer and calculate the molarity of theEDTA solution. The addition of excess EDTA produces nofurther color
20、 change at the end point.6.6 Heavy DistillateA straight-run, lead-free, petroleumdistillate of low bromine number, with approximately 10 %distilling at 400F (205C) and 90 % at 460F (240C)(WarningCombustible).6.7 Iodine Monochloride Reagent (1.0 M) (WarningIodine monochloride will react with ammonium
21、 ions undercertain conditions to yield nitrogen triiodide, which is explo-sive. Take care, therefore, that this reagent does not come intocontact with ammonia or ammonium salts.) Dissolve 111.0 g ofpotassium iodide (KI) in approximately 400 mL of distilledwater. Add 445 mL of concentrated hydrochlor
22、ic acid (sp gr1.18) and cool to room temperature. Add 75.0 g of potassiumiodate (KIO3) slowly and with stirring, until all the free iodineinitially formed has just redissolved to give a clear orange-redsolution (the amounts of KI and KIO3are calculated to give aslight excess of iodate; if a greater
23、excess is present, this willcause precipitation of lead and indifferent end points in theEDTA titration). Cool to room temperature and dilute to 1 Lwith distilled water. Store in a glass-stoppered bottle(WarningDo not use rubber stoppers to stopper vesselscontaining iodine monochloride solutions.).6
24、.8 Lead Nitrate, Standard Solution (0.005 M)Weigh withan accuracy of 60.001 g about 1.7 g of lead nitrate (Pb(NO3)2)that has been dried at 105C and cooled in a desiccator.Dissolve it in distilled water and add 10 mL of concentratednitric acid. Dilute to 1 L with distilled water in a volumetricflask
25、and shake thoroughly to mix. Calculate the molarity ofthe solution according to the equation:Molarity 5 wt g! of lead nitrate/331.23 (1)6.9 Nitric Acid, concentrated (rel dens 1.42).6.10 Sodium Acetate, Acetic Acid Buffer SolutionDissolve23.0 g of anhydrous sodium acetate in about 500 mL ofdistilled
26、 water. Using a buret, add 6.2 mL of glacial acetic acid.Dilute to 1 L with distilled water in a 1-L volumetric flask andshake to mix.6.11 Xylenol Orange Indicator Solution Dissolve 0.2 g ofxylenol orange, sodium salt, in 100 mL of distilled water andadd 1 drop of 1 + 1 hydrochloric acid. (Prepare f
27、reshly eachweek.)7. Sampling7.1 Samples shall be taken in accordance with the instruc-tions in Practice D 4057.8. Procedure8.1 Transfer 50 mL of the iodine monochloride reagent and25 mL of heavy distillate to the 250-mL separatory funnel.Measure the temperature of the sample to the nearest 0.5C(1F)
28、(Note 1). Using a pipet (WarningNever suck leadedgasoline or corrosive liquids into a pipet by the mouth),transfer 25 6 0.05 mL of the sample of the gasoline to theseparatory funnel. Immediately stopper the funnel and shakethe contents for 60 s. Allow the funnel to stand for severalminutes, until th
29、e two phases have separated and run the loweraqueous phase into a 500-mL Erlenmeyer flask made ofborosilicate glass. Wash the gasoline phase by shaking withthree separate 20-mL portions of distilled water and add thewashings to the Erlenmeyer flask.NOTE 1For cool gasolines having a Reid vapor pressu
30、re above 7.0 lbcool the sealed sample container to approximately 60F (15C) beforeremoving the sample for analysis.8.2 Place several glass beads in the flask, cover the mouth ofthe flask with a small ribbed watch glass, and place on a hotplate. Heat the contents and allow to boil until the volume oft
31、he solution is 15 to 20 mL. Without removing the flask fromthe hot plate, add 5 mL of concentrated nitric acid down theside of the flask and evaporate the contents almost to drynessto oxidize any organic material present. Repeat the nitric acidtreatment, evaporating almost to dryness until all the o
32、rganicmatter has been removed and a white residue remains. Finallyremove the watch glass and evaporate the solution to dryness.Remove the flask from the hot plate and allow the contents tocool.8.3 Add about 200 mL of distilled water to the flask andswirl to dissolve the residue. The residue may be q
33、uicklydissolved by heating the solution, but this must be cooledbefore titrating. Add 5 drops of bromthymol blue indicator andtitrate with 1 + 1 ammonia solution until the color just changesto blue; then add 10 mL of sodium acetate-acetic acid buffersolution and 5 drops of xylenol orange indicator s
34、olution. Inthe presence of lead, the solution will now have a rose color.8.4 Titrate with the 0.005 M standard EDTA solution. Thecolor of the solution changes to orange near the end point, theend point being indicated by a sharp change from orange to apermanent bright lemon-yellow. Note the titer. T
35、he addition ofexcess EDTA solution produces no further color change at theend point.8.5 Carry out a blank determination on the reagents, exclud-ing the heavy distillate and omitting the extraction stage and, ifnecessary, correct the sample titer accordingly.9.

The constant 8.288 is obt
