Coulometric Titration of Microgram Amounts of Americium at the Conducting Glass Electrode
Description
Coulograms of Am(III) in carbonate electrolyte exhibit a well-defined wave for the Am(III)-Am(V) oxidation step at the conduction glass electrode. This wave provides the basis of a method for the quantitative titration of this element at the 30-microgram level with a precision of 1.5 percent. The method is restricted to pure solutions; corrections are required for the partial oxidation of Am(V) to Am(VI) and the reduction of Am(VI) by water
