Notes:
Potentiometric titrations in water of high-molecular-weight partly hydrolyzed polyacrylamides were analyzed by the Lifson - Katchalsky rodlike model. A fair concordance was found between theory and experimental curves with pK0 of acid functions of about 4.75 when 0 〈 τ 〈 0.49. Two methods were derived to calculate the parameter n of the extended Henderson-Hasselbach equation by using a series expansion of pKa vs. α, not yet reported in the literature. A new equation for n was established and comparison between two sets of values of n, obtained by using the theoretical ΔpK curves and series expansion is discussed.
