  • Page 118 Instruction Manual CyberScan pH5500/ 5000 Measuring Ion Concentration in Samples Using the Incremental Methods When performing known addition, you will add an aliquot of standard solution containing the ionic species of interest to a known volume of your sample. The mV readings of the sample can then be calculated based upon the difference in the mV readings.

  • Page 120: Known Subtraction Method

    Instruction Manual CyberScan pH5500/ 5000 11.4 Known Subtraction Method The procedure for known subtraction is very similar to that for known addition method. An aliquot of standard is added to a known volume of the sample. The difference is that the standard does not contain the same ionic species that you are trying to measure in the sample.

    Instruction Manual CyberScan pH5500/ 5000 11.5 Analate addition The analate addition method is useful when your sample is at an elevated temperature and you want to negate the effect that temperature will have on the concentration calculation. This method is also useful if you have only a small amount of sample available. The analate addition method differs only slightly from the known addition method.

    Instruction Manual CyberScan pH5500/ 5000 11.6 Analate Subtraction The analate subtraction method is useful when no ion specific electrode is available to measure the ion of interest directly. Like known subtraction the sample and the standard contain different ionic species. However, the ion being measured is in the standard and not in the sample.
