(f)
Calculate concentration of the silver nitrate solution according to section
I
a. The difference
171
between the calculated concentration and the certified value should be within 0.5%. If outside the
172
acceptance value, check the experimental procedures and titration system. If issue is not
173
resolved, then use fresh standardized silver nitrate. If fresh standardized silver nitrate does not
174
provide an acceptable result, replace the electrolyte of the electrode and check the operating
175
condition of the dosing unit.
