Abstract:
Extraction of titanium(IV) gallate species into tri-iso-octylamine (TIOA) has been studied to develop a spectrophotometric method for the determination of titanium. The behaviour of common ions, under the conditions for quantitative extraction of titanium, is reported. Examples are given of application of the method to analysis of steels, reactor-grade thoria, and silicate rocks.

Precipitation Titration: Endpoint Detection Methods
In argentometric precipitation titrations, endpoints can be detected visually by the Mohr, Volhard, and Fajans methods. In the Mohr method, adding a soluble chromate indicator gives an initial yellow color to the analyte solution. As the titrant is added, the first excess of silver ions forms a red silver chromate precipitate, marking the endpoint. The solution pH should be maintained at about 8 by adding solid CaCO3.

EDTA: Indirect and Alkalimetric Titration
Unlike direct titration, back-titration, and displacement titration, indirect titration is an EDTA titration method for quantifying anions. In the indirect titration method, anions are precipitated as their insoluble salts with excess metal ions. The filtrate containing the excess metal ions is directly titrated with standard EDTA until the endpoint is achieved. Another approach involves extracting the metal ion and back-titrating with standard EDTA to obtain the endpoint. In this way, the...
