The Ca electrode (E733) is an ion-
selective electrode whose sensing
element is a PVC membrane containing
a calcium-neutral ion carrier. The ion-
sensitive membrane is covered with a
cellophane membrane in order to
protect it from the samples.
The electrolyte has a constant and
known concentration of calcium ions.
When a sample is brought in contact
with the electrode, a potential develops
across the PVC and cellophane
membranes. The potential depends on
the difference between the calcium
(more precisely, activity) in the
electrolyte and the sample. If the
c
Ca
2+
in both solutions is the same, the
potential across the electrode tip will be
0 V.
The Cl electrode (E744) is an ion-
selective electrode whose sensing
element is a PVC membrane containing
a chloride ion carrier. The ion-sensitive
membrane is covered with a cellophane
membrane in order to protect it from the
samples.
The electrolyte has a constant and
known concentration of chloride ions.
When a sample is brought in contact
with the electrode, a potential develops
across the PVC and cellophane
membranes. The potential depends on
the difference between the chloride
(more precisely, activity) in the
electrolyte and the sample. If the
c
Cl

in
both solutions is the same, the potential
across the electrode tip will be 0 V.
