37、of the supernatant solution into a 250-mL Erlenmeyerflask and add 100 mL of water. While thoroughly mixing on amagnetic stirrer, add drops of NaOH solution until a pHbetween 13.0 and 13.5 is obtained, as measured by theindicator paper or approved pH meter. (Use a stirring rod totransfer drops of sol

38、ution to the indicator paper). Add (4) dropsof triethanolamine solution and then add about 0.2 g of theindicator powder. While the solution is being stirred on themagnetic stirrer, titrate with EDTA solution to a pure blue endpoint, and record the quantity in milliliters.NOTE 4A sharper endpoint may

39、 sometimes be obtained by addingapproximately half of the anticipated quantity of EDTAsolution before theaddition of the NaOH solution.NOTE 5All equipment must be kept scrupulously clean by thoroughrinsing with water.

Precision and

44、 Bias12.1 From an interlaboratory study based on 60 test resultsobtained from 3 soils, 5 laboratories, and tests at 4 differentlime contents, the following statements can be made:12.1.1 Single Operator PrecisionBecause only one testwas performed on a given soil type at a given percent limecontent wi

45、thin a single laboratory, no single operator precisionstatement can be made.12.1.2 Multilaboratory PrecisionThe multilaboratorystandard deviation has been found to be 0.23 % of lime contentand 0.34 mL of EDTA.612.1.3 BiasWhen experimental results are compared withknown values from accurately compoun

46、ded specimens, thebias of the test method is found within 95% confidence to liebetween 0.02 and 0.73 % of the true lime content.13.
