Studies on RDX and related compounds: X. Analysis for nitric acid in acetic acid-acetic anhydride media

Abstract

An analytical method has been developed for the estimation of nitric acid in acetic acid – acetic anhydride media, with a precision of 0.3%. The procedure involves the addition of a solution of potassium acetate in acetic acid to the sample. The excess is back-titrated conductometrically with a standard solution of nitric acid in acetic acid.
