THE method described'the substance is decomposed by action of sulfuric and nitric acids, and the arsenic is precipitated by hypophosphorous acid. The arsenic is collected on a filter and is then dissolved by action of excess bromine (from Koppeschaar's bromate-bromide solution) in measured amount. The excess bromine is determined iodometrically. This procedure is well suited to the analysis of relatively small (semimicro) samples, for the reason that in the oxidation in-
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
