(a) Heat to dissolve
(b) Shake to disolve
Dissolve each element independently.
- Boric acid in 200 ml.
- Sulphate if zinc in 200 ml.
- EDTA in 250 ml.
- Other elements in 50 ml.
- 1. Put all solutions in a flask and add the EDTA, solution has a purple color.
- 2. Lead to boiling point, until the solution has a green color.
- 3. Decrease a little the temperature (no less of 70 °C), set pH between 6.5-6.8 with KOH to 20%.
- 4. Gauge to 1 liter.
- 5. Leave the solution in a flask until the solution get a purple color.
- 6. Remove the residue of reddish brown color by filtration.
