Abstract: | Changes in liquid junction potentials in copper(II) solutions were measured when different reference electrodes were used. The slope and intercept of a calibration curve for a copper-selective electrode will depend on the selection of reference electrode. The condition of the electrode surface of an Orion copper-selective electrode was studied microscopically and the influence of redox potential on stability of the electrode against corrosion is discussed. Oxidizing solutions will produce pits at dislocations in the material and there will be a mixed electrode potential. The slope, stability, and speed of response are much lower when the surface contains pits. Diamond-polishing was shown to improve the electrode significantly. |
