Accurately weigh 1.0 g, and dissolve in 100 mL of water. The resulting solution should be clear, and no appreciable amount of insoluble residue should remain.
Sensitivity to Nitrate To 7 mL of water, add 5 mg of sodium chloride. Add 3.0 mL of nitrate ion (NO3) standard solution, and mix. Add 0.10 mL of 0.10% indigo carmine reagent solution (prepared using the sample) and 10 mL of sulfuric acid. The blue color should be completely discharged in 5 min.
