Step II If water soluble, determine the solubility in diethyl ether. This test further classifies water-soluble materials. 

The distillate may contain volatile neutral compounds as well as volatile acids and phenols. Add a slight excess of 10-20 per cent, sodium hydroxide solution to this distillate and distil until the liquid passes over clear or has the density of pure water. The presence of a volatile, water-soluble neutral compound is detected by a periodic determination of the density (see Section XI,2) if the density is definitely less than unity, the presence of a neutral compound may be assumed. Keep this solution Si) for Step 4. 

Step 4. The steam-volatile neutral compounds. The solution (containing water-soluble neutral compounds obtained in Step 1 is usually very dilute. It is advisable to concentrate it by distillation until about one-third to one-half of the original volume is collected as distillate the process may be repeated if necessary and the progress of the concentration may be followed by determination of the densities of the distillates. It is frequently possible to salt out the neutral components from the concentrated distillate by saturating it with solid potassium carbonate. If a layer of neutral compound makes its appearance, remove it. Treat this upper layer (which usually contains much water) with solid anhydrous potassium carbonate if another aqueous layer forms, separate the upper organic layer and add more anhydrous potassium carbonate to it. Identify the neutral compound. 

Description of Method. The water-soluble vitamins Bi (thiamine hydrochloride), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacinamide), and Be (pyridoxine hydrochloride) may be determined by CZE using a pH 9 sodium tetraborate/sodlum dIhydrogen phosphate buffer or by MEKC using the same buffer with the addition of sodium dodecyl-sulfate. Detection Is by UV absorption at 200 nm. An Internal standard of o-ethoxybenzamide Is used to standardize the method. 

The diluent portion also determines the form, or physical appearance, of the flavor, ie, Hquid, powder, or paste. Liquid flavor forms include water-soluble, oil-soluble, and emulsion forms powder flavor forms include plated (including dry solubles), extended, occluded, inclusion complexes, and other encapsulated forms and paste flavor forms include fat, protein, and carbohydrate-based paste.

Synthetic manganese carbonate is made from a water-soluble Mn (IT) salt, usually the sulfate, by precipitation with an alkafl or ammonium carbonate. The desired degree of product purity determines the quaUty of manganese sulfate and the form of carbonate to be used. For electronic-grade material, where the content of K O and Na20 cannot exceed 0.1% each, the MnSO is specially prepared from manganese metal, and ammonium bicarbonate is used (26) (see Electronic materials). After precipitation, the MnCO is filtered, washed free of excess carbonate, and then, to avoid undesirable oxidation by O2, dried carefljlly at a maximum temperature of 120°C. 

The quaHtative determination of water-soluble perchlorates by precipitation using methylene blue yields a violet precipitate (105). Using potassium, mbidium, or cesium salts for precipitation from ethanol—water solutions can serve as a quaHtative determination of perchlorates (106). 

Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose [9004-32-4] (CMC) and hydroxyethyl cellulose [9004-62-0] (HEC) are the ceUulosics most widely used in drilling fluids (43). CMC is manufactured by carboxymethylation of cellulose which changes the water-insoluble cellulose into the water-soluble CMC (44). Hydroxyethyl cellulose and carboxymethyl hydroxyethyl cellulose (CMHEC) are made by a similar process. The viscosity grade of the material is determined by the degree of substitution and the molecular weight of the finished product. 

Alkalinity (Soluble Soda) Determination. The surface alkalinity or soluble or leachable soda is determined by making a fixed weight percent slurry in water and determining the alkalinity of the solution by pH measurement or acid titration. Sodium ion-sensitive electrodes have been investigated. 

Wet-Chemical Determinations. Both water-soluble and prepared insoluble samples must be treated to ensure that all the chromium is present as Cr(VI). For water-soluble Cr(III) compounds, the oxidation is easily accompHshed using dilute sodium hydroxide, dilute hydrogen peroxide, and heat. Any excess peroxide can be destroyed by adding a catalyst and boiling the alkaline solution for a short time (101). Appropriate ahquot portions of the samples are acidified and chromium is found by titration either using a standard ferrous solution or a standard thiosulfate solution after addition of potassium iodide to generate an iodine equivalent. The ferrous endpoint is found either potentiometricaHy or by visual indicators, such as ferroin, a complex of iron(II) and o-phenanthroline, and the thiosulfate endpoint is ascertained using starch as an indicator. 

Other New Methods. Because the values obtained are dependent on the conditions of measurement, standard test procedures are under review by ISO for determination of cold-water solubiUty of water-soluble dyes (38) determination of the solubiUty and solution stabiUty of water-soluble dyes (39) and determination of the electrolyte stabiUty of reactive dyes (40).
