I.A Ce** standard solution is prepared using primary-standard-grade ammonium hexanitratocerate(IV), (NH4)2Ce(NO3); dissolved in hot
hydrochloric acid solution.
II. Ce** is yellow and Ce3* is colorless. The color change is abrupt enough that Ce** can serve as its own indicator.
III. Ce**/Ce* exists in different formal potential in different acids due to the interaction of the anions part of the acid with Ce**
IV. Analysis of many organic analyte such as alcohol, aldehydes can be determined using Ce**by an indirect method involving a technique of
back titration of unreacted excess Ce*with standard iron Il titrant
