TESTS Assay (Titration of reducing power). Weigh accurately about 0.47 g, and add to a mixture of 100.0 mL of 0.1 N iodine volumetric solution and 5 mL of 10% hydrochloric acid solution. Swirl gently until the sample is dissolved completely. Titrate the excess of iodine with 0.1 N sodium thiosulfate volumetric solution, adding 3 mL of starch indicator solution near the end of the titration. One milliliter of 0.1 N iodine consumed corresponds to 0.003203 g of SO2.

Insoluble Matter [Part 2: Gravimetric Methods; Insoluble Matter]. Use 20 g dissolved in 200 mL of water.

Chloride Dissolve 0.50 g in 100 mL of water, and transfer 10 mL of the well-mixed solution to a platinum dish. Add low-chloride 10% sodium hydroxide reagent solution until the solution is slightly alkaline to litmus paper, making note of the volume of sodium hydroxide added. Prepare a standard containing 0.01 mg of chloride ion (Cl) in 10 mL of water, and add the same volume of low-chloride 10% sodium hydroxide reagent solution as was added to the sample solution. To each solution, add dropwise 2 mL of 30% hydrogen peroxide, and allow to stand at room temperature for 10 min. Evaporate the solutions to dryness on a hot plate (~100 °C), dissolve the residues in 10 mL of water, and add 1 mL of nitric acid and 1 mL of silver nitrate reagent solution to each. Any turbidity in the solution of the sample should not exceed that of the standard.

Heavy Metals [Part 2: Colorimetry and Turbidimetry; Heavy Metals (as Lead); Procedure for Heavy Metals, Method 1]. Dissolve 3.0 g in a solution of 15 mL of water and 8 mL of hydrochloric acid. Evaporate to dryness on a hot plate (~100 °C), dissolve the residue in about 20 mL of water, and dilute with water to 25 mL. For the control, add 0.02 mg of lead ion (Pb) to 1.0 g of sample, and treat exactly as the 3.0 g of sample.

Iron [Part 2: Colorimetry and Turbidimetry; Iron; Procedure for Iron, Method 1 (Ammonium Thiocyanate)]. Dissolve 1.0 g in 10 mL of water, add 2 mL of hydrochloric acid, and evaporate to dryness on a hot plate (~100 °C). Dissolve the residue in a mixture of 5 mL of water and 2 mL of hydrochloric acid, and again evaporate to dryness. Dissolve the residue in 4 mL of hydrochloric acid, dilute with water to 100 mL, and use 50 mL of the solution without further acidification.
