Abstract
The design and construction of a pressure- and flow-insensitive reference liquid junction for use in ion concentration electrode measuring systems is described. The junction is inexpensive, is very easily and rapidly constructed, is rugged, and is adaptable to various applications. When used in apH-measuring system, drift, pressure artifacts, and flow artifacts are negligible. The response time of the system appears to be less than 10 ms. Using the pH electrode device as described, the dissociation reaction rate constant of H2CO3 at 24 degrees C was determined to be 22 s-1.
