Stoichiometric approach to redox back titrations in ethanol analyses

Anna M Michałowska-Kaczmarczyk and Tadeusz Michałowski*

Published: 11 June, 2019 | Volume 3 - Issue 1 | Pages: 001-006

This article refers to calculations involved with determination of ethanol, analyzed according to redox back titration principle. A quantitative reasoning, based on logical sequence of statements, is presented for derivation of the formulas required to calculate the results of chemical analyses according to stoichiometric principles. The titrations are considered as two-step analytical procedures. This way, one can gain an insight into a classical redox titration and get a knowledge on the advantages of back titrations.
