Abstract
Sulphide sulphur and dissolved sulphur in a polysulphide solution can be successively determined with satisfactory accuracy and reproducibility by potentiometric argentimetry in which a sulphide-selective indicator electrode is used. Before the titration, polysulphide ions need to be converted by an excess of potassium cyanide into thiocyanate and sulphide ions. The excess of cyanide ions is masked with formaldehyde and sulphuric acid, then the solution is made alkaline with ammonia and titrated with silver nitrate till the first end-point is reached (sulphide sulphur). After the acidification of the solution with sulphuric acid, the titration is continued till the second end-point is attained (dissolved sulphur).
