Abstract

Argentometric titration with the indication of the point of equivalence based on the interaction of low-energy photons with the analyzed matter is described. The characteristic line of silver was excited by the combined source 147Pm/Sm; the samples were either in cuvettes or deposited on the chromatographic paper. The results are - within the limits of experimental errors - in agreement with the results of the classical argentometric titration with the visual indication of the point of equivalence.
