A recommended sampling method is given in EN 1482-1. Sample preparation shall be carried out in accordance with EN 1482-2. 8 Procedure 8.1 Preparation of t
43、he solution Weigh, to the nearest 0,001 g, 1 g of the sample and place it in the Kjeldahl flask. Add 0,5 g of powdered iron (5.3) and 50 ml of the stannous chloride solution (5.12), stir and leave standing for 0,5 h. During the time it is left standing, stir again after 10 min and 20 min. Then add 1
44、0 g of potassium sulfate (5.4) and 30 ml of sulfuric acid (5.2). Bring to the boil and maintain boiling for 1 h after the appearance of white fumes. Leave to cool and dilute with 100 ml to 150 ml of water. Transfer the suspension quantitatively into a 250 ml graduated flask, cool and make up the vol
45、ume with water, stir and filter through a dry filter into a dry container. Instead of then siphoning off the suspension in order to apply the variant a, b or c, the ammoniacal nitrogen in this solution may also be distilled directly, after adding sufficient sodium hydroxide to ensure a large surplus
46、 (5.13). 8.2 Analysis of the solution According to the variant chosen, place in the receiving flask a measured quantity of standard sulfuric acid as indicated in Table 1, Table 2 or Table 3. Add the appropriate quantity of the chosen indicator solution (5.11.1 or 5.11.2) and, if necessary, water in
47、order to obtain a volume of at least 50 ml. The end of the extension tube of the condenser shall be below the surface of the solution. With a pipette, transfer, according to the variant chosen, 50 ml, 100 ml or 200 ml of the solution obtained as described in 8.1, and distil the ammonia as described
48、below, adding sufficient NaOH solution (5.13) to ensure a considerable excess. Add water in order to obtain a total volume of about 350 ml, and several grains of pumice in order to control the boiling. Assemble the distillation apparatus and, taking care to avoid any loss of ammonia, add to the cont
49、ents of the distillation flask 10 ml of concentrated sodium hydroxide solution (5.13). Gradually warm the flask, to avoid boiling vigorously. When boiling commences, distil at the rate of about 100 ml in 10 min to 15 min; the total volume of distillate should be about 250 ml. The condenser shall be regulated so that a continuous flow of condensate is ensured. The distillation should be completed in 30 min to 40 min. When no more ammonia is likely to be evolved, lower the receiving flask so that the tip of the condenser extension is above the surface
