ABSTRACT
Dissolved oxygen content in water was determined by winkler method a type of redox titration. Specifically, iodometry was used in
the experiment, where the analyte use was iodine and the titrant was thiosulfate .The experiment was done by collecting water
sample from Vinzon’s pond adding the reagents that made it acid, then it was titrated with thiosulfate solution and starch was
used as an indicator. Data showed that the dissolved oxygen of the sample is 0.00921, with a standard deviation of 0.00103
and the confidence limit has a range of 0.00665-0.0118. Supported by the computed statistical parameters, it was therefore
concluded the the water in Vinzon’s pond is highly polluted and cannot sustain life.
