V1 the volume (in inillilitres) of the sodium hydroxide solution (4.6) used,
M1 its actual molarity (4.6),
M2 the actual molarity factor of the sulphuric acid solution (4.4),
m the mass (in milligrams) of the test portion (6.1) taken,
then:
ammonia % (m/m) = 20 M 2 - V 1 M 1 × 17×100 0,4 m = 20 M 2 - V 1 M 1 × 4250 m
