A combined plastic membrane hydralazinium (Hz) selective electrode was constructed from a disposed combined glass electrode. The glass bulb was removed and a plastic membrane containing Hz–reineckate ion pair, as exchanger, was glued to a polyethylene cap fixed in place of the glass bulb. The electrode exhibited average calibration graph slope of (49.1 mV)/(Hz concentration grade) at 25 °C and high selectivity for Hz against several inorganic cations. The electrode was employed to determine the solubility product of the ion pair and as a sensor for potentiometric determination of HzCl by potentiometric titration.

Detailed information about how to prepare the electrodes and how to construct the calibration graph are available.
Our Secondary School editors work hard to distill all the JCE materials to produce a fraction of particular interest to high school teachers. We call it CLIC.
In recent years we have worked hard to better match our advertisers with our readers. When shopping for chemistry education materials, visit our advertisers' WWW sites first.
