Prepare the laboratory sample(s) required by the relevant procedure described in ISO 8213. 5.2 Analysis 5.2.1 Determination of available chlorine (main product) 5.2.1.1 Principle The available chlorine is determined by measuring active chlorine in the sample. The oxidizing chlorine reacts with potassium iodide releasing iodine which is then titrated with sodium thiosulfate standard volumetric solution in the presence of starch indicator solution. 5.2.1.2 Reagents All reagents shall be of a recognized analytical grade and the water used shall conform to grade 3 in accordance with EN ISO 3696. 5.2.1.2.1 Potassium iodide crystals (KI). 5.2.1.2.2 Glacial acetic acid. SIST EN 12932:2008

Alternatively a standard volumetric solution can be prepared by the following procedure: Dissolve 24,8 g Na2S2O3 . 5 H2O in a 1 000 ml one-mark volumetric flask in about 0,75 l water. After the temperature has equalized make up to the mark with water and mix thoroughly.
To standardize :
Weigh, to the nearest 0,1 mg, 3,600 g (m)of dry potassium iodate. Dissolve in water in a 1 000 ml one-mark volumetric flask, make up to the mark with water and mix (standard reference solution c(1/6 KIO3) = 0,1 mol/l). Place 200 ml of water in a 500 ml stoppered conical flask, add (2 ± 0,5) g of potassium iodide and stir to dissolve. Then introduce,by means of a pipette, 10,0 ml of sodium thiosulfate solution for standardization, add (15 ± 1) ml of hydrochloric acid solution (diluted 1 + 1 by volume) and (5 ± 1) ml of starch solution (5.2.1.2.4). Titrate immediately with the potassium iodate standard reference solution until the appearance of a blue coloration persisting for at least 30 s occurs . Record the volume (V1) of iodate used.
The actual concentration, c, of the sodium thiosulfate standard volumetric solution (Na2S2O3.5H2O), expressed in moles per litre is given by the following equation:
VcV11c×=
(1) where
c1 is the concentration, expressed in moles per litre, of the potassium iodate standard reference solution [c(1/6 KIO3) = 0,1 mol/l];
V is the volume, in millilitres, of the sodium thiosulfate standard volumetric solution used for the standardization (V= 10 ml);
V1
is the volume, in millilitres, of potassium iodate standard reference solution used in the titration. 5.2.1.2.4 Starch solution, mass fraction1 % .
Make a slurry with (1 ± 0,1) g starch and (5 ± 1) ml water. Add (90 ± 5) ml boiling water to the slurry. Stir to dissolve it and cool the solution. This solution needs refrigeration to avoid the decomposition of the starch which results in a vague end point. Keep the solution cool and use it within one week. NOTE Commercial indicators for iodine titration exist and can be used in place of the specified starch solution provided that their efficiency has been previously tested. 5.2.1.3 Apparatus
