Abstract

The nature of the “blanks” occurring in titrations with electrically generated bromine is discussed. In acidic media such “blanks” are due to the limits of sensitivity of the experimental technique employed (mono- or biamperometric). In alkaline solutions hydrolysis of bromine plays an important role; the formation of hypobromite ion explains the very large “blanks” observed. Acid-base titrations, with bromine as indicator confirmed these findings.
