.....
Calculation
(1 - S / B) x 10 x 0.68 = organic matter (%) of sample
S = Volume of Ferrous Sulfate solution required to titrate the sample, in mL.
B = Average Volume of Ferrous Sulfate solution required to titrate the two blanks, in mL.
10 = conversion factor for units.
0.68 = a factor derived from the conversion of % organic carbon to % organic matter
Analytical Performance
Range and Sensitivity
WB method of determining organic matter is accurate in mineral soils where total %OM is 6% or less. Samples with more than 6% OM are difficult to titrate due to color change occurring too rapidly.
Precision and Accuracy
Each volumetric reading is recorded to the nearest 10th of a mL. Precision must be ensured that the person titrating is able to visibly view the reddish-brown color change endpoint and quickly end the titration. The aid of a stirring bar and a well lit stirring plate can improve user abilities in viewing the titration end point.
Safety and Disposal
Disposal of chromate waste by-products of WB titration method must be properly managed in accordance to EPA regulations.
