additions of 34.57 g/L thiosulfate ion and 5.444 g/L sodium sulfite were made to that “seasoned” sample.

POTENTIOMETRIC TITRATION STATISTICS

Repeatability Standard Deviation, 1sr & 95 Percent

Confidence Estimate (not including bias)

Repeatability standard deviation is an estimate of the variability one trained analyst should be able to obtain under favorable conditions (analyzing a sample, with one instrument, within one day).

The 95 percent confidence estimate (calculated using the repeatability standard deviation) around a single test will include the mean value 95 percent of the time.

Bias

Bias is a statistically significant deviation of the mean from the known mix level at a 95 percent confidence level. It is determined for “fresh” samples only. Bias is not determined for “seasoned” samples, since the component concentration level was not determined independently of the test method.

A statistically significant bias for thiosulfate of

(-1.09 percent) was found for a “fresh” tank Process ECN-2 Fixer sample. The biases for Hypo Index and Sodium Sulfite were not statistically significant. However, the bias for thiosulfate was judged not to be practically significant.
