Thanks to ALL !

The answer lies somewhere between 10 and 50 per ml
with a mean at 20.

Making a self experiment is not so easy with costly
and/or dangerous products...

I just would like to improve on Ca titration using
a serynge marked 0 to 200 (= 2ml)...

Dear all,

Does anyone has an idea ?
is it really constant (when no viscosity is present) ?
Or does it depend of the hole size ?

Philippe


20 drops per ml is the the most used amount I've seen.
But those drop do vary

Doubt it'll make or break any dosing routine you might have in mind.

Thanks !

I wanted to have a better precision measuring Ca...
A first idea is to double the water and the first two reagents,
then count every drop for half the Ca concentration !

These drops being done with a "cheap" bottle I would prefer
to take the titration liquid in the 2 ml syringe and the read the
value...

Do you mean I have to be also very precise with the NaOH
quantity I put at the beginning ?

Regards,

Philippe
