Answer / deepak
karl fischer is based on the principle of bunsen reaction
where sulphur dioxide , iodine and a nitrogeneous base like
pyridine reacts to form the alkyl amino compounds which
reacts with water consuming it and hence determines the
extent of water present in the sample.

Answer / vijaykumar
The Iodine present in the kari-fischer reagent wil react
with the water present in the sample> and will be
eliminated as HI.
H20+I2-----HI

Answer / nandkishor
The method is based on stoichiometric reaction between water
and a solution of sulfur dioxide and iodine in pyridine(or
any other base)and methanol the end point is detected
electrometrically

Answer / m. r. sinha
The property of karl fischer reagent is to absorb water, its
strength is generally mentioned on the bottle or can be
determined. Now, as it is being dissolved into the sample it
absorbs the water content of the sample and the solution
becomes water free and works as electrolyte solution and the
two electrodes complete the circuit (as it is dipped into
the solution) and gives signal to stop the flow of KF
reagent. With the help of KF volume (strength already known,
the water content in the sample is determined.
