Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any

3 Principle
The test portion is decomposed in nitric and sulphuric acids. Arsenic is coprecipitated in ammonia
solution by the carriers of iron hydroxide to be separated from the matrix. The arsenic content is
determined by comparison against iron-matched standards using ICP-AES.
4 Reagents
During the analysis, use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and distilled water, or water of
equivalent purity.
4.1 Sodium hydroxide (NaOH), AR grade.
4.2 Arsenic trioxide (As O ), AR grade.

4.3 Iron(III) chloride hexahydrate (FeCl •6H O), AR grade (<0,000 05 % arsenic).
3 2
4.4 Ammonium chloride (NH Cl), AR grade.
4.5 Ammonium acetate, AR grade.
4.6 Nitric acid (ρ 1,42 g/mL), AR grade.
4.7 Nitric acid, dilute (1 + 1).
Slowly, add 50 ml of nitric acid (4.6) to 50 ml of water while stirring.
4.8 Hydrochloric acid (ρ 1,16 g/mL), AR grade.
4.9 Hydrochloric acid, dilute (1 + 1).
Slowly add 50 ml of hydrochloric acid (4.8) to 50 ml of water while stirring.
4.10 Sulphuric acid (ρ 1,840 g/mL), AR grade.
4.11 Sulphuric acid, dilute (1 + 1).
Slowly add 50 ml of sulphuric acid (4.10) to 50 ml of water while stirring.
4.12 Sulphuric acid, dilute (1 + 50).
Slowly add 20 ml of sulphuric acid (4.10) to 1 000 ml of water while stirring.
The addition of sulphuric acid to water generates heat and shall be performed with adequate precautions.
4.13 Hydrofluoric acid (ρ 1,13 g/mL).
4.14 Aqueous ammonia (ρ 0,91 g/mL).
4.15 Ammonia solution (1 + 99).

4.16 Iron(III) chloride solution (10 g/l).
Dissolve 48,4 g iron (III) chloride hexahydrate (4.3) in 200 ml of water. Add 10 ml of hydrochloric acid
(4.8) and make up to 1 000 ml with water and mix.
4.17 Sodium hydroxide solution (20 % w/v).
Weigh 20,0 g of sodium hydroxide (4.1) in a polytetrafluoroethylene beaker (5.6). Add 50 ml of water and
allow the solid to dissolve. Dilute the solution to 100 ml and store in a labelled polyethylene container.
