Calculate the nitrogen content (WN), expressed in grams of nitrogen per 100 g of product by:

W N = 1,40 V - V 0 c m

where:

WN
  • the nitrogen content.

  • V
  • the volume in millilitres of the standard volumetric solution of acid used in the determination.

  • Vo
  • the volume in millilitres of the standard volumetric solution of acid used in the blank test,

  • c
  • the concentration, expressed as moles per litre of the acid standard volumetric solution (4.7.).

  • m
  • the mass in grams of the test portion.

  • Round off the result to the nearest 0,001 g per 100 g.
