Computer calculation of equilibrium constants of species present in mixtures of metal ions and complexing agents.
A general computer program is described for the interpretation of pH titration data for mixtures containing the ions of up to two metals and up to two ligands. The program, which employs the non-linear least-squares method, may be used to calculate equilibrium constants for hydrolysed metal ions, protonated ligands, and simple, protonated, hydrolysed, polynuclear, and mixed complexes.
