Answer:
Citric acid:
Citrates, which include salts, esters, and the polyatomic anion present in solution, are derivatives of citric acid. Trisodium citrate is an example of the former; triethyl citrate is an example of an ester.
Explanation:
- Citric acid and too much mercuric sulphate are present in the clear serum that is produced as a result of this precipitation.
- The citric acid in this serum is then heated, oxidising it to acetone dicarboxylic acid, by adding diluted potassium permanganate solution gradually.
- Together with the mercury, the acetone dicarboxylic acid precipitates. The cold solution is then filtered to remove the precipitation.
- The precipitate is then tit-rated for the presence of mercury using potassium cyanide and silver nitrate, with potassium iodide serving as an indicator, after being dissolved in hydrochloride acid.
- The quantity of citric acid is calculated based on the amount of mercury discovered.
