Report of subsequent key comparison CCQM - K73.2018.2 amount content of H+ in hydrochloric acid (0.1 mol/kg-1)

Abstract

The subsequent key comparison K73.2018.2 was performed to demonstrate the capability of the participating institutes to measure the amount content of H+ in hydrochloric acid as a follow-up of the previous key comparison CCQM-K73.2018. A HCl solution of a slightly different composition to that in CCQM-K73.2018 was used. There were two institutes and SMU as the coordinating laboratory participating in this subsequent comparison. UkrCSM obtained results in good agreement with the reference value; INMETRO results exhibited a large bias due to a calculation error found only after disclosure of the results.
