A comparison of methods used for determination of cation exchange capacity

Abstract: Cation exchange capacity of ten non-calcareous and non-saline soils from Queensland, Australia, has been determined by the ammonium acetate method using different procedures, by an ammonium chloride method at pH8.5, and by three methods which attempt to approximate field conditions. Procedural differences in the ammonium acetate method produced variation in results, and methods using approximate field conditions gave much lower values for those soils considered to have variable charge properties.

“…The problem most commonly occurs in alkaline soil due to low solubility of Fe at high pH (Alcantara et al 2002;Shi et al 1993) or, less commonly, in soil with a high cation exchange capacity (Waters et al 2002;Gillman et al 1983). Symptoms include chlorosis in young leaves, stunting and reduced yield (Seeliger and Moss 1976;Christin et al 2009;Welch and Graham 2004).…”

“…The soil pH was determined at a soilto-water ratio of 1:2.5. The CEC was measured by the ammonium acetate method (Gillman et al, 1983). The soil organic carbon (SOC) contents were determined by a dry combustion method with an elemental analyzer (Vario EL III, Elementar, Hanau Germany), using soil pretreated with HCl, and in turn the soil organic matter content equaled 1.724 Â SOC (Nam et al, 2008).…”

“…The solution was filtered with filter paper and washed twice with 20 mL of a KCl solution. Six drops of 0.1% phenolphthalein were added to the filtrate, and the solution was titrated with 0.01 mol L -1 NaOH (Gillman et al, 1983). The percent aluminum saturation To analyze the soil cation exchange capacity, 2 g of a soil sample was weighed, then 1 g of ISSN 2166-0379 2017 http://jas.macrothink.org 20 active charcoal and 100 mL of HCl (0.5 mol L -1 ) were added.…”

“…The mixture was stirred for approximately 30 min and vacuum filtered, and the filter was washed with distilled water and then with 100 mL of a calcium acetate solution (to a final volume of 250 mL). Finally, 6 drops of 0.1% phenolphthalein were added, and the solution was titrated with 0.1 NaOH mol L -1 (Gillman et al, 1983).…”
