O in 20mL deionized water, add 20mL sulfuric acid,
and then transfer it into a 100mL volumetric flask and dilute them with
deionized water to the mark.
1.2 Digestion solution: weight 9.8g potassium dichromate, 25g
potassium aluminum sulfate and 5.0g ammonium molybdate and dissolve
them in 500mL deionized water. Add 200mL sulfuric acid and transfer
them to a 1000mL volumetric flask and dilute them with deionized water
