The titer volume of the sample gives the volume of Ferrous Ammonium Sulphate required to react with the excess potassium dichromate in the solution. Similarly, the titer volume for the blank (distilled water) gives the volume of Ferrous Ammonium Sulphate required to react with the excess potassium dichromate in the blank. The equation for the titration can be expressed as:
Cr2O72 -- + FeSO4 (NH4)2SO4 = Cr+ + NH4+ + Fe 3+
From above equation it can be seen that one molecule of dichromate corresponds to one molecule of Mohr's salt. Thus, the difference in volume of excess K2Cr2O7 reacting with
Mohr's solution can be calculated from the expression:
= (Original vol. K2Cr2O7 -- vol. of K2Cr2O7 used for oxidation) solution - (Original vol. K2Cr2O7 -- vol. of K2Cr2O7 used for oxidation) blank
= (Vol. of K2Cr2O7 used for oxidation) blank - Vol. of K2Cr2O7 used for oxidation) solution
Hence, the difference in the titer volume for the solution and the blank is used to find out the Chemical Oxygen Demand directly.

Why do you add mercuric sulfate in COD test?
Mercuric sulfate is added to complex chloride (and other halogen) ions. These ions interfere in the COD digestion by complexing with the silver to reduce its catalytic effect and by reacting with the dichromate to form elemental halogens thus giving falsely high readings.

Should you avoid grapes if you are on a low potassium diet?
One cup of grapes has about 175 mg of potassium. An adult's RDA of potassium would usually be around 4500-5000 mg potassium, so 175 mg isn't a lot. Nonetheless, if you need to avoid potassium, the answer is yes - grapes should be avoided. Potassium-rich fruits include bananas, prunes, oranges, cantaloupe, avocados, grapes, blackberries and raisins. Tomatoes, artichokes, lima beans, acorn squash, carrots and spinach are examples of vegetables representing significant sources of potassium. Other high-potassium foods include all meats, dairy products, sunflower seeds, almonds, chicken and some fish, including salmon, cod and flounder.
