REVIEWED: 1988
INTRODUCTION:
This subcourse is designed to teach you how to mix and store chemicals used in the pH meter
and hydrometer, and you will learn about sensitometry and photo process control. No amount of
emphasis could be enough to stress the importance of this information. Quality control is the most
important single element in the operation of a photo lab. Using good quality control procedures can
save you valuable time and money.
LEARNING STRATEGY:
This subcourse consists of four lessons and an examination.
Lesson 1. Chemical Mixing and Storage.
Lesson 2. Determining pH and Specific Gravity.
Lesson 3. Sensitometry and Photographic Process Control.
Lesson 4. Operate Sensitometer, Densitometer, and Plotting Control Chart.
Examination.
The following tasks are covered in this subcourse.
113-578-3004, Process B&W/Color Neg/Color Slide Film Manually.
113-578-3013, Mix Photographic Solutions.
113-578-3014, Evaluate B/W Photographic Negatives.
113-578-6004, Initiate Safety Program.
RESOURCE REQUIREMENTS:
Subcourse booklet and examination answer sheet are furnished. No other material is needed.

LESSON 1
CHEMICAL MIXING AND STORAGE
OBJECTIVE:
In this lesson you will gain a knowledge of chemical mixing and storage. Chemistry is essential
for all photography. The photographer must depend on the chemical processes to produce the negatives
and prints which are his/her ultimate goal. In some instances, in Army photography, compounded
chemicals known as prepared chemicals, or ready mixes, are not available because of economic or other
reasons. In any event, it may be up to you to mix your own processing solutions, and unless they are
safely, carefully, and properly handled and mixed, the results may be inferior or even DISASTROUS.
The learning objectives of this lesson are as follows:

WHY CHEMICALS SHOULD BE STORED IN AIRTIGHT CONTAINERS.
a. If chemicals are exposed to air for any great length of time, they will deteriorate and be of no
further use. To prevent this, they should be kept in airtight containers.
b. There are three ways chemicals deteriorate. Either they give off moisture to the air, termed
efflorescence, or they absorb moisture from the air, called hydroscopic or deliquescence, or they combine
with oxygen, known as oxidation. The following six frames of programmed text, will help to explain the
storage of chemicals.
(1) If chemicals are exposed to air for
any great length of time, they will
deteriorate and be of no further
use.
Chemicals should not be ___________
to air for any great length of
time.
exposed
(2) Chemicals should be stored in
airtight storage containers to pre-
vent their deterioration. Chemicals
exposed to air will _______________.
(3) (Chemicals may deteriorate for one
of the following reasons:
