No. Nitrate needs to be reduced to nitrite before forming a colored test solution. The nitrite test chemistry does not have the necessary chemical.Hi,
My friend gave me Hanna ulr nitrite checher.... Is it possible to use it to measure no3 with the reagent of the kit included?
I suppose was in this way.... Someone has already used this checker using no3 salifert test kit?No. Nitrate needs to be reduced to nitrite before forming a colored test solution. The nitrite test chemistry does not have the necessary chemical.
Yes, you can use the nitrite checker to measure the color intensity of a nitrate test. Salifert would be OK but if I recall correctly, it has a test volume of 2 mL and you need 10 mL for the nitrite Checker. You would need to increase the test volume and reagents 5 times.If I woul like to test salifert with this Hanna checker I need to prepare some cal liquid... I have this nitrogen.... Is it possible to use to make calibration solution? If yes how I have to calculate the ml of part rathar then saltwater?
What is assumed is correct?Perfect... Thanks it is what I would like to do... In the bottle I'm reading 1 per cent so if I put 1ml in 999ml of salt water the final no3 concentration will be 10ppm?
So practically is waste of time to do using the staffs that I have at home.... Any other way to do it not investing a lot?
To make a nitrate standard? Do you have a scale?
You can buy standard solutions premade. Spike into seawater for testing.
I don't have a scale but I would like to buy something. Do you have suggestion? ... for me it's too much the cost of the ref solution. It is just a test...
I have to find any other solution to approach the problem...
3)added 0.1ml of Nitrogen Solution
OK, that seems reasonable.
The potassium nitrate you posted would be a good one for making a more accurate standard. .
