Abstract
The determination of iodide with potassium dichromate and sodium vanadate in 6–8 M phosphoric acid medium by potentiometric or visual titration is described. Ferroin and barium diphenylamine sulphonate (BDAS) are used as the indicators in the visual titration with potassium dichromate and sodium vanadate respectively. Acetone is used to stabilize the iodonium ions liberated, in the visual titration. Iodide can also be determined with sodium vanadate in 2–4 M sulphuric acid medium with BDAS as indicator in the presence of oxalic acid as catalyst and acetone to stabilize the liberated iodine cations. The visual procedures are applied for the determination of iodide in tincture of iodine. The formal potentials of the iodine/iodide couple in various phosphoric acid media are reported.
