determination of impurities, reagents and preparations as required in the test of
this standard, when no other requirements are indicated, shall be prepared
according to the provisions of GB/T 601, GB/T 602, GB/T 603. When the
reagents which are used to prepare the solution used are not specified, the
solution refers to aqueous solution.
A.3 Identification test
A.3.1 Identification of calcium
Take a small amount of specimen. Add hydrochloric acid solution (1 + 2) to
dissolve it. Use phenolphthalein solution (10 g/L) as an indicator solution. Use
ammonia solution (1 + 3) to adjust to neutral. Add ammonium oxalate solution
(35 g/L) to produce a white precipitate, which is soluble in the hydrochloric acid
solution (1 + 2) but insoluble in glacial acetic acid.
A.3.2 Identification of carbonate
Take a small amount of specimen. Add hydrochloric acid solution (1 + 2) to
generate a gas. Lead this gas into calcium hydroxide solution (3 g/L). A white
precipitate is produced.

25 - Volume of the specimen solution as pipetted, in milliliters (mL);
250 - Volume of the volumetric flask, in milliliters (mL);
1000 - Conversion factor.
The test results are based on the arithmetic mean of the parallel determination
results. The absolute difference between the two independent determinations
as obtained under repetitive conditions is not more than 0.2%.
A.5 Determination of hydrochloric acid insoluble
A.5.1 Reagents and materials
A.5.1.1 Hydrochloric acid solution: 1 + 1.
A.5.1.2 Silver nitrate solution: 10 g/L.
A.5.2 Instruments and equipment
High-temperature furnace: It can control the temperature at 800 °C ± 25 °C.
A.5.3 Analytical procedures
Weigh approximately 5 g of the specimen, accurate to 0.01 g. Place it in a tall
beaker. After adding water to wet it, slowly add 25 mL of hydrochloric acid
solution. Heat to boil it. When it is still hot, use medium-speed quantitative filter
paper to filter it. Use hot water to rinse the beaker. Rinse the filter paper until
the filtrate has no chloride ions (use silver nitrate solution to check it). Transfer
the filter paper together with the insoluble into a porcelain crucible which had
been burned at 800 °C ± 25 °C to a constant mass. After ashing it on an electric
furnace, burn it at 800 °C ± 25 °C until the mass is constant.
A.5.4 Calculation of results
The mass fraction of hydrochloric acid insoluble, w2, is calculated according to
formula (A.2):
Where:
m3 - The mass of hydrochloric acid insoluble and crucible, in grams (g);
In a water bath, heat it for 1 h. After cooling it, transfer it all into a 100 mL
volumetric flask. Add water to the mark. Shake it uniformly. Place it overnight.
Perform dry filtration. Pipette 50 mL of the filtrate. Place it in a porcelain crucible
that has been burned at 800 °C ± 25 °C to a constant mass. Add 0.5 mL of
sulfuric acid. Evaporate it dry. Burn it at 800 °C ± 25 °C until the mass is constant.
A.7.4 Calculation of results
The mass fraction of magnesium and alkali metal content, w3, is calculated
according to formula (A.3):
Where:

Use a weighing bottle which had been dried to constant weight at 200 °C ± 5 °C
to weigh about 2 g of the specimen, accurate to 0.0002 g. Dry it at 200 °C ±
5 °C for 4 h. Cool it to room temperature. Weigh it, accurate to 0.0002 g.

A.10.1 Summary of method
After the specimen is treated, the cadmium ions are led into the atomic
absorption spectrometer in the acidic solution. After atomization, the 228.8 nm
resonance line is absorbed, the absorption amount is proportional to the
cadmium content, which is compared with the standard series for quantification.

A.10.2.2 Cadmium standard solution: 1 mL solution contains 0.001 mg of
cadmium (Cd). Pipette 1 mL of the cadmium standard solution as prepared in
GB/T 602. Transfer it to a 100 mL volumetric flask. Add water to the mark. Shake
it uniformly. Prepare it before use.
A.10.3 Instruments and equipment
Atomic absorption spectrophotometer.
A.10.4 Analytical procedures
A.10.4.1 Preparation of test solution and blank test solution
Weigh 1.00 g ± 0.01 g of specimen. Place it in a 150 mL beaker. Use water to
wet it. (Cover the watch glass). Add hydrochloric acid solution dropwise to
dissolve it. Heat to boil it. Cool it down. Transfer it all in to a 50 mL volumetric
flask. Use water to dilute it to the mark. Meanwhile prepare the blank test
solution.
A.10.4.2 Production of working curves
Pipette 0.00 mL, 0.50 mL, 1.00 mL, 2.00 mL, 3.00 mL, 4.00 mL of cadmium
standard solution into six 50 mL volumetric flasks. Respectively pipette 5 mL of
hydrochloric acid solution. Use water to dilute it to the mark. Shake it uniformly.
This series of solutions is the standard working solution of cadmium. Use an
acetylene-air flame. Adjust the atomic absorption spectrophotometer to the
optimum working condition at a wavelength of 228.8 nm. Use water as a
reference, measure the absorbance. Use the mass of cadmium as the abscissa
and the absorption value as the ordinate, to draw the working curve.
A.10.5 Determination
For the test solution and the blank test solution, follow the A.10.4.2 from “Use
acetylene-air flame, ... to measure the absorbance” to carry out operation.
Determine its absorption value. Check the mass of the cadmium from the
working curve.
