Dissociating properties:
no
No.:
#1
pKa:
0
Remarks on result:
not determinable
Conclusions:
The test substance was equilibrated in water and the water soluble fraction was titrated with a standard base. The average concentration of the four replicate test substance water soluble fractions was 2.41 x 10-5 mole /Liter. The test substance titration curve for each of the four replicates was indistinguishable from the blank curve. No significant differences among the replicate results were observed. The test substance was determined to have no observable dissociation.
Executive summary:

The study was conducted in order to determine the dissociation constant of the test substance using the procedure outlined in the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Guideline for Testing of Chemicals 112, "Dissociation Constants in Water, Titration Method". The dissociation of a substance in water is of importance in assessing its impact upon the environment.

 

The test substance was equilibrated in water and the water soluble fraction was then titrated with a standard base. The average concentration of four replicates of test substance in water was 2.41 x 10-5mole/Liter at 20°C. The test substance titration curve for each of the four replicates was indistinguishable from the blank. The test substance was determined to have no observable dissociation.

 

The reference substance, Benzoic Acid, average dissociation constant (pKa) at 20°C was determined to be 4.34 with a standard deviation of 0.01.

Description of key information
