Abstract

The polarographic behaviour of solochrome violet RS is investigated in buffer solutions of varying pH in the absence and presence of surfactants (triton 100-X and dodecylbenzene-sulphonate). The reduction proceeds irreversibly along a single wave in acid solutions and two waves in alkaline ones. The electrode reaction corresponds to four electrons in media of pH 8.0; in media of pH 4 5.5 two electrons are consumed. In solution of pH 2.5 4 or 5.5–8.0, both reactions contribute in varying magnitudes. The addition ofSAS causes the inhibition of reduction beyond the 2-electrons stage in acid solutions; the polarograms comprise one wave in case ofDBS and two waves of equal height in presence of triton. In alkaline media the polarogram comprises three waves due to the splitting of the main reduction wave. The kinetic parameters of the electrode reaction are also determined.
