TESTS Assay (By acid–base titrimetry). Tare a small, glass-stoppered flask, add about 1 mL of the sample, and weigh accurately. Cautiously add 30 mL of water, cool, add 0.15 mL of methyl orange indicator solution, and titrate with 1 N sodium hydroxide volumetric solution. One milliliter of 1 N sodium hydroxide corresponds to 0.04904 g of H2SO4.

Mercury (By CVAAS, [Part 2: Trace and Ultratrace Elemental Analysis; Mercury Determination by CVAAS]). Cool each of three 100 mL volumetric flasks containing about 35 mL of water in an ice-water bath for 15 min, and then slowly and cautiously add 10.0 g

of sample to each. To the second and third flasks, add mercury ion (Hg) standards of 10 ng (1.0 ppb) and 20 ng (2.0 ppb), respectively. Add 5 mL of nitric acid to all, and dilute to the mark with water. Mix. Zero the instrument with a blank, and determine the mercury content using a suitable mercury analyzer system. Cool to room temperature (1.0 mL of 0.01 µ/mL Hg = 10 ng).

Selenium (By HGAAS, [Part 2: Trace and Ultratrace Elemental Analysis; Selenium Determination by HGAAS; Analysis; Procedure for Selenium Determination by HGAAS]). To a set of three 100 mL volumetric flasks, transfer 10.0 g (5.4 mL) of sample. To two flasks, add selenium ion (Se) standards of 1.0 µg (100 ppb) and 2.0 µg (200 ppb), respectively. Dilute each to 100 mL with (1:1) hydrochloric acid. Mix. Prepare fresh working standard before use.

Trace Metals Determine the aluminum, barium, boron, cadmium, calcium, chromium, cobalt, copper, iron, lead, lithium, magnesium, manganese, molybdenum, potassium, silicon, sodium, strontium, tin, titanium, vanadium, zinc, and zirconium by the ICP–OES Preconcentration method described in [Part 2: Trace and Ultratrace Elemental Analysis; Inductively Coupled Plasma−Optical Emission Spectroscopy (ICP–OES); Preconcentration of Ultratrace-Grade Reagents for Analysis by ICP–OES].
