Question { 9659 }

what is the principle involved in determination of moisture
content?

Answer

The sample is dissolved in a solvent which is content in a
moisture free vessel & titrated against the KF sol. the
unknowm water content of sample is determined by measuring the
volume of KF sol.required to reach the end pt. of titratn.
simply..
water content = consumption of kf soln.in ml x titrated value
of KF soln.

titrated value = mg of water/ml of KF soln.
