The chloride ISEs (ion selective electrodes) in this research were the solid membrane chloride ISEs based AgC1. There were two types of chloride ISEs that were developed, namely the chloride ISEs of coated wire and composite systems. Both types of electrodes were characterized. The selectivity was done by comparing Esel of the chloride standard solutions and Esel of the interference ions (Br- and I-). The measurement of chloride ions in water samples was done by using the coated wire chloride ISE, the composite chloride ISE and the Mohr method. We compared the result of the two chloride ISE methods to that of standard method for chloride determination (Mohr) by using F-test and Post Hoc Test LSD (least significant difference) and Duncan. Analysis by using F-test and Post Hoc Test (LSD and Duncan) and characterization results of both the methods showed that coated wire chloride ISE was more effective compared to composite chloride ISE. Nemstian response was 59.83 mV/decade, linier range measurement was 10-1-10-5 M, limit detection was 1.23 × 10-5 M, response time along was 25 s and interfering ion was 10-4 M Br-.展开更多
