Qiang Fu; Li Liu; Guofu Wang; Jing Yu; Shiyuan Fu – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Commonly used methods to simulate the oxidation-reduction (redox) titration curves include the three-step method and the rigorous method. The simple three-step method simulates the redox titration curve with the assumption that the reaction is complete, which is widely used in undergraduate quantitative analysis courses. For the rigorous…
