1、Designation:D106716Standard Test Methods forAcidity or Alkalinity of Water1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D1067;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses in
2、dicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S.Department of Defense.1.Scope*1.1 These test methods2cover the determination of acidityor alkalinity of all typ
3、es of water.Three test methods are givenas follows:SectionsTest Method A(Electrometric Titration)7 to 15Test Method B(Electrometric or Color-Change Titration)16 to 24Test Method C(Color-Change Titration After HydrogenPeroxide Oxidation and Boiling)25 to 331.2 In all of these test methods the hydroge
4、n or hydroxylions present in water by virtue of the dissociation or hydrolysisof its solutes,or both,are neutralized by titration with standardalkali(acidity)or acid(alkalinity).Of the three procedures,Test Method A is the most precise and accurate.It is used todevelop an electrometric titration cur

6、dity or alkalinity relative toa predesignated end point based on the change in color of aninternal indicator or the equivalent end point measured by a pHmeter.They are suitable for routine control purposes.1.3 When titrating to a specific end point,the choice of endpoint will require a careful analy
7、sis of the titration curve,theeffects of any anticipated changes in composition on thetitration curve,knowledge of the intended uses or dispositionof the water,and a knowledge of the characteristics of theprocess controls involved.While inflection points(rapidchanges in pH)are usually preferred for
8、accurate analysis ofsample composition and obtaining the best precision,the use ofan inflection point for process control may result in significanterrors in chemical treatment or process control in someapplications.When titrating to a selected end point dictated bypractical considerations,(1)only a
9、part of the actual neutral-izing capacity of the water may be measured,or(2)thiscapacity may actually be exceeded in arriving at optimumacidity or alkalinity conditions.1.4 A scope section is provided in each test method as aguide.It is the responsibility of the analyst to determine theacceptability
10、 of these test methods for each matrix.1.5 Former Test Methods C(Color-Comparison Titration)and D(Color-Change Titration After Boiling)were discontin-ued.Refer to Appendix X4 for historical information.1.6 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are
