M A_ is the real molarity of the AgNO 3 solution, V1 and according to the following equation: R = 0.1312 (% Cl)
V2 ~tre the volumes of NH4SCN solution (in cm3) used + 0.0152, with a correlation coefficient, r of 0.994.
in the sample and blank tests respectively, m is the mass
of the sample portion (in grams).
