14、is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition t

15、o other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in

16、 the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non- governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with cond

17、itions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC Nat

18、ional Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the w

19、ay in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IE

20、C Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication. 6) All users should

21、ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage

22、of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the

23、 referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

24、The main task of IEC technical committees is to prepare International Standards. However, a technical committee may propose the publication of a technical report when it has collected data of a different kind from that which is normally published as an International Standard, for example “state of t

25、he art“. IEC 62432, which is a technical report, has been prepared by subcommittee 65D: Analyzing equipment, of IEC technical committee 65: Industrial-process measurement and control. The text of this technical report is based on the following documents: Enquiry draft Report on voting 65D/120/DTR 65

26、D/123/RVC Full information on the voting for the approval of this technical report can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. 4 TR 62432 IEC:2006(E) The committee has decided that the content

27、s of this publication will remain unchanged until the maintenance result date indicated on the IEC web site under “http:/webstore.iec.ch“ in the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be reconfirmed, withdrawn, replaced by a revised edition, or amended. A biling

28、ual version of this Technical report may be issued at a later date. TR 62432 IEC:2006(E) 5 INTRODUCTION The fundamental rationale for the rH index, extended to cover the pure aqueous and the aqueous-organic media, has been recently described critically 1 1 , but for the users convenience, the essent

29、ials will be recalled in the present Technical Report together with the application domains, the recommended procedures and operational details. 1Numbers in square brackets refer to the bibliography. 6 TR 62432 IEC:2006(E) THE rH INDEX IN AQUEOUS AND AQUEOUS-ORGANIC MEDIA 1 Scope This Technical Repo

30、rt concerns analyzers, sensor units and electronic units used for the determinations of the rH index in aqueous and aqueous organic media. This Technical Report identifies the terminology, definitions, theory and methodology used for the determination of rH values or redox systems in aqueous solvent

31、 or aqueous-organic solvent mixtures. 2 General principles 2.1 Redox couples, redox equilibria, redox potentials, redox systems An oxidation/reduction couple (“redox” couple) O|R, present in water or in an aqueous-organic solvent mixture involves the concurrence of an oxidant species O (ionic or unc

32、harged) and a reductant species R (ionic or uncharged) of the same chemical element, thereby establishing an oxidation/reduction equilibrium (redox equilibrium) O + ne = R, and an electrochemical oxidation/reduction potential (redox potential) E O|Rwhich is transmitted to the meter by an inert metal

33、 electrode (usually platinum or gold). This metal participates in the specific charge transfer which is going on throughout the solution and is called upon only to act as a donor or acceptor of electrons. When both the O and R species are at unit activity (standard state) the redox potential E O|Rbe

34、comes the standard redox potential, symbolized as E O|R . In the environmental, hydrological, biomedical, winery, dairy-farming, and corrosion domains of interest for rH measurements, only seldom is a single O|R couple present alone in the solvent medium. Instead, an undefined number of redox couple

35、s O|R, O|R, O”|R”,.O n |R noverlap, thus determining a mixed redox potential of very complex (not to say impossible) interpretation: therefore it is better to speak of a “redox system”, but this latter term is also legitimately applicable to a single redox couple. NOTE Some examples of familiar redo

36、x couples with related reaction equilibria and redox potential expressions, are given in Table 1.

TR 62432 IEC:2006(E) 7 2.2 The rH value The notional definition of the rH index 2,3 for a given redox system in a given (aqueous or aqueous-organic) medium is rH = log p H2(1) where p H2is that pressure of hydrogen gas that would equalize the potential E H + |H2of the hydrogen ga

40、s electrode to the redox potential E O|Rof the system being studied (thus zeroing the pd of the cell resulting from the combination of these two electrodes). rH is an index of the reducing power of the redox system under consideration. The Nernstian expression for E H + |H2is (with k = 2,303RT/F): E

41、 H + |H2= E H + |H2 k pH + (k/2) rH (2) where E H + |H2is the standard electrode potential (which varies with the solvent but it is conventionally put equal to zero at any temperature in pure aqueous medium 4, 5). If the hydrogen gas electrode works at p H2= 1 bar (i.e. under standard state conditio

42、ns), then rH = 0 at any pH of the solution (see Figure 1, which describes the pertinent Pourbaixs E Redoxvs. pH diagram), and this is the nominal zero of the rH-metric scale to which corresponds the nominal maximum reducing power of a redox system One redox system of paramount importance is the equi

43、molal (quinoneQ + hydro- quinoneH 2 Q) system, commonly called the “quinhydrone”, of symbol QHY, whose electrode potential is expressed by E QHY= E QHY k pH (3) On consideration of equations (2) and (3), the potential difference E 4of the cell (4) below, where the quinhydrone electrode is combined w

44、ith the hydrogen electrode and the two solutions are at equal activity of the H + ion: Pt|H2 (p H2 )|H+ H + saturated with QHY|Pt (4) is clearly independent of pH. (In common practice, the two electrode compartments are kept separated by a porous glass frit or a closed stopcock, as indicated by the

45、symbol, to avoid the mutual diffusion of hydrogen gas and quinhydrone which would produce an irreversible chemical reaction and formation of a useless mixed electrode potential). Therefore, equating E H + |H2to E QHYin accord with the equation (1), i.e. putting E 4= 0, gives the related rH QHYvalue:

46、 E 4= E QHY E H + |H2= E QHY E H + H2 (k/2) rH QHY= 0 (5) from which rH QHY= 2 (E QHY E H + |H2 ) / k = rH S(6) As equation (6) shows, since the difference (E QHY E H + H2 ) is a well defined and accurately known quantity which is a function of temperature but is invariant upon passing from pure wat

47、er medium to most water-rich aqueous-organic media 1, the quinhydrone redox system constitutes the key standard rH Sfor reference in rH measurements, according to the operational equation (27) described later on. In the context of this invariancy, at 298,15 K, (E QHY E H + H2 ) = 0,699 75 V 6 and, t

48、herefore: (rH) QHY= rH S= 2 x 0,699 75 / 0,059 159 7 = 23,66 (7) 8 TR 62432 IEC:2006(E) For this reason, the cell (4) can be considered the archetype of the rH-metric calibration cell. Another important redox system for which it is important to known the rH value is that of the oxygen gas electrode,

49、 of reaction O 2+ 4H + + 4e = 2H 2 O. Thus, its redox potential E O2|H2O will, assuming unit H 2 O activity, be given by E O2|H2O = E O2|H2O k pH (k/4) rO (8) where we use the further definition rO = log p O2(9) The rO index, which is a quantity complementary to rH, is an index of the oxidizing power of the given redox system in the same medium (analogously, the pOH index of alkalini
