FAQs
1. What is the shelf life of this Cerium(IV) sulfate solution?
The solution remains stable for up to 12 months from the date of manufacture when stored in its original container at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Always check the label for the exact expiry date.
2. Can this solution be diluted for lower concentration titrations?
While the solution is standardized at 0.1N, it can be diluted with deionized water to achieve lower concentrations. However, recalibration using a primary standard is recommended after dilution to ensure accuracy.
3. Is this solution compatible with potentiometric titration methods?
Yes, the Cerium(IV) sulfate solution is fully compatible with potentiometric titration setups, including those using platinum or other redox-sensitive electrodes, due to its stable oxidation state and minimal interference.
4. What precautions should be taken during handling?
As a strong oxidizing agent, this solution should be handled with nitrile gloves and safety goggles in a well-ventilated area. Avoid contact with organic materials, metals, or reducing agents to prevent violent reactions.
5. How does the AVS TITRINORM® grade differ from standard laboratory grades?
The AVS TITRINORM® grade undergoes rigorous testing for concentration accuracy, impurity levels, and batch-to-batch consistency, unlike general-purpose reagents. It is specifically optimized for titration applications where precision is critical.
