Abstract

  Simulated ascorbinometric titration of ferricyanide is considered from the viewpoint of thermodynamic instability of ferro- and ferricyanide species and their complexes, at different concentrations of H₂SO₄. The results of calculations, made according to GATES/GEB principles, are illustrated graphically by E = E(Φ), pH = pH(Φ) relationships and speciation diagrams. This illustrates fundamental advantages offered by GATES/GEB in the field of simulation of metastable systems.

Keywords: Ascorbinometric Titration; Computer Simulation; Ferricyanide; GATES; GEB
