Potentiometric studies in oxidation-reduction reactions: Reduction with ferrous ethylenediamine sulphate ceric sulphate method

Ferrous ethylenediamine sulphate has been used as a reducing agent to determine indirectly potassium permanganate, ceric sulphate, potassium chlorate, hydrogen peroxide, potassium persulphate, potassium dichromate and potassium bromate by a potentiometric method. An excess of ferrous ethylenediamine sulphate added to each of the substances in acid medium was titrated with a standard solution of ceric sulphate, using platinum foil as an oxidation-reduction electrode coupled with a saturated calomel electrode through an agar-agar potassium chloride bridge.
