Most KOH is in the proximity of 90-92%. The suggestion would be to titrate, adjust for approximately a 10% purity loss, then conduct a bracket titration to see how close your calculations are to reality.
Use the process as a "calibration" for the balance of the bag's contents. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >I have a 50# bag of KOH and have no idea what the purity is.
