RELIABILITY<br />

Three standard reversal color developer mixes containing<br />

20, 50 and 80 mg/L of potassium iodide were analyzed in<br />

duplicate by two analysts. For the first analysis of each mix<br />

the analyst added RA-1, equivalent to 56 mg/L, to the<br />

sample before treatment. The second analysis was performed<br />

after a 168 mg/L RA-1 addition. The RA-1 was added just<br />

prior to the analyses because of its tendency to decompose in<br />

developer solutions during storage. The procedure was<br />

repeated the next day using three color developer mixes from<br />

another color reversal process.<br />

The least mean square line and 95 percent confidence<br />

limits for individual results are based on these data. The<br />

95 percent confidence limits are ± 1.71 mg/L of KI.<br />

SPECIAL APPARATUS<br />

pH Meter<br />

Reference Electrode, Double Junction, Orion No. 900200<br />

or equivalent [Filling solutions: Sat. Silver Chloride soln.<br />

or Orion No. 900002 (inner chamber) and 10 percent<br />

potassium nitrate, or Orion No. 900003 (outer chamber)]<br />

Indicator Electrode, Silver Billet, Beckman No. 39261 or<br />

equivalent<br />

Note: Use pipets and volumetric glassware meeting the<br />

“Class A” definition by the National Institute of Standards<br />

and Technology (NIST).<br />

REAGENTS<br />

Use ACS Reagent Grade reagents unless specified<br />

otherwise.<br />

10 N Sodium Hydroxide, NaOH<br />

Chloroform, CHCl 3 , reagent-grade<br />

Acetic Acid, Glacial, CH 3 COOH, Reagent ACS<br />

Sodium Chloride, NaCl<br />

0.005 N Silver Nitrate, AgNO 3<br />

(standardized to 5 decimal places)<br />

PROCEDURE<br />

Extraction<br />

1. Add 250 mL of developer, from a graduated cylinder,<br />

to a 500-mL separatory funnel.<br />

2. Add 25 mL of 10 N sodium hydroxide from a tip-up<br />

pipet.<br />

3. Add 100 mL of chloroform from a tip-up pipet.<br />

Warning<br />

DANGER! Suspected carcinogen. WARNING!<br />

Harmful if inhaled. Can cause embryo-fetal injury<br />

Avoid breathing vapor. Keep container closed. Use<br />

with adequate ventilation. Avoid prolonged or<br />

repeated contact with skin.<br />

4. Stopper and shake the funnel a few times; then vent<br />

through the stopper. Continue to shake the funnel for<br />

30 seconds, venting occasionally.<br />

5. Discard the lower (chloroform) layer and any<br />

emulsion present at the interface.<br />

Note: Waste chloroform should be disposed of<br />

according to locally acceptable practices.<br />

6. Repeat Steps 3, 4, and 5 twice.<br />

Titration<br />

Note: Prepare the electrode pair and calibrate the electrodeinstrument<br />

system according to the instructions given in<br />

Method ULM-0003-01, Potentiometric Titrations for<br />

Photoprocessing Solutions, or any subsequent revision.<br />

1. Drain the remaining (aqueous) layer into a 400-mL<br />

beaker.<br />

2. While stirring on a magnetic mixer, add 35 mL of<br />

glacial acetic acid from a tip-up pipet.<br />

3. Add and dissolve 10 g of sodium chloride.<br />

4. Titrate the sample with standardized 0.005 N silver<br />

nitrate using a 25-mL buret. See instructions for<br />

potentiometric titrations in Method ULM-0003-01,<br />

Potentiometric Titrations for Photoprocessing<br />

Solutions.<br />

5. Determine the end point using the concentric arcs<br />

technique from Method ULM-0003-01,<br />

Potentiometric Titrations for Photoprocessing<br />

Solutions.<br />

Calculation<br />
