VOLUMETRIC SOLUTION OF SODA.

Take of | |
Solution of Soda | a sufficiency |
Distilled Water | a sufficiency |
Fill a burette with the solution of soda, and cautiously drop this into 1,000 grain-measures of the volumetric solution of oxalic acid until the acid is exactly neutralised as indicated by litmus. Note the number of grain-measures of the solution of soda used, and having then introduced 9,000 grain-measures of it into a graduated jar, augment this quantity by the addition of water, until it becomes grain-measures. If, for example, n=930, the 9,000 grain-measures should be augmented to grain-measures. 1,000 grain-measures of this solution contain one molecular weight in
