HCID 311Citric Acid

Procedure

After adjusting the stationary state, the chloride content of the discharged solution was 890 m.equ. of which 870 m.equ. were sodium chloride and 20 m.equ hydrochloric acid. 8 m.equ of chloride ions were contained in the control solution. When the bed was charged with sodium ions of the sodium citrate, 865 m.equ. of citric acid were produced.
