My previous purchase of SN turned bad. Almost 90% of it has turned into nitrate. So was looking for CO method. But I found this to be completely dangerous, given the gas's flammability and risk for my neighboring family. Though 3 side of my is empty and but on one side there is a family, which include kids below 5 also. Can't be so selfish to risk their life. Doing it an isolated places was thought but was risky enough for me to negate this. Thus was looking for Anesthesia drugs and was ultimately disappointed for not getting it.
Now thought again for SN thoroughly, and remember in my school had all this chemicals available all year round. Was able to obtain approximately 78 gm from their for very very cheap. INR 150 only i.e., just 1.6 USD.
Now I tested it. I have a scale which can measure it to 10 mg i.e., 0.01 gm. I first put a small plastic bowl on the scale and measured it. Then tare it to zero. Then put exactly 1.09 gm on it. Put that in a very tiny ziplock bag. Scale was showing 1.86 gm with big having 1.09 gm of SN in it. Took it to a jeweller friend who is having weighing scale with accuracy upto 0.001 gm. It also showed it has 1.857 gm of bag + SN. Came back to home with a 2 litre mineral water bottle. I have 2 x 2 L beaker. unloaded the bottle at the rate of 1L in each. Some water remained in the bottle and tested it using aquarium test it. It shows water does have 40mg of nitrAte but zero Nitrite. Then poured some water from one beaker in 2 cups. In one of the cup I took 1 ml water from beaker and emptied the entire content of SN in it. mix it using glass rod. put this water back into same beaker. Then took second cup with water and poured this water into first cup. Rotate it. stirred the same rod in it for 2 minutes and thn emptied in the beaker. This beaker now has 1.09 gm per litre. Now took out exactly 1 ml from other beaker and threw it and then took exactly 1 ml from SN mixed beaker and poured it into the second beaker. Stirred the rod (New one this time) and took a sample out of it. Tested it and it showed 2.5 mg per liter. How?
