The determination of pH in hypersaline lakes with a conventional combination glass electrode

Abstract: pH in natural waters is commonly measured with a pH glass combination electrode. This method, however, yields accurate results only in low ionic strength solutions whereas its application to high ionic strength solutions "suffers" from bias introduced mainly by liquid junction potential. The determination of pH in high ionic strength solutions was conducted with dual ion selective electrodes systems that are liquid‐junction‐free. In the present work, we provide a method for determining the pH over a very wide … Show more

“…pH fluctuations in the water may depend on freshwater inflows supplied continuously in the lakes in inflow from precipitation, tributaries, rain, snow and groundwater, and from losses through evaporation which change the pH and salinity also. During dilution with freshwater the pH of the brine in saline water bodies rises [16] and it decreases during evaporation [17]. Similar decrease in pH with increasing ionic strength was observed at the case of Dead Sea [15,16] and Great Salt Lake [18].…”

“…During dilution with freshwater the pH of the brine in saline water bodies rises [16] and it decreases during evaporation [17]. Similar decrease in pH with increasing ionic strength was observed at the case of Dead Sea [15,16] and Great Salt Lake [18]. Salinity in the Galgas Lake ranged from 60‰ in February, 2017 to 350‰ in June, 2017 and July, 2018.…”

“…An AC voltage of 10 kHz is adopted as the voltage source for the measuring circuit so as to ignore the parasitic impedance where, α = V out =V G is the constant gain of the source follower circuit. Generally, the reference voltage is applied to the glass reference electrode to measure the pH of the solution [19]. However, it would be difficult to measure the pH of sweat on human skin using the glass reference electrode because it needs to be immersed in the target solution.…”

“…Traditionally, the determination of water pH mainly adopts the glass electrode method [ 2 ]. The measurements of this method are accurate, but the process is cumbersome and needs the pH buffers to calibrate.…”
