• One c.c. N/10 iodine solution = 0.0063 gramme Na_{2}SO_{3 The amount of sulphides may be estimated by titrating the hot soda solution, to which ammonia has been added, with an ammoniacal silver nitrate solution, 1 c.c. of which corresponds to 0.005 gramme Na_{2}S. As the titration proceeds, the precipitate is filtered off, and the addition of ammoniacal silver solution to the filtrate continued until a drop produces only a slight opacity. —  The Handbook of Soap Manufacture
