VALIDASI METODE ANALISA KADAR NaCl DAN Mg PADA PENGUJIAN GARAM OLAHAN

Abstract

Salt is one of the most important commodities for both household and industrial needs. Salt is a collection of chemical compounds that are mostly composed of sodium chloride (NaCl) and impurities are also found including Mg. Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the levels of Sodium Chloride (NaCl) and Magnesium (Mg) in processed salt samples produced by PT X and to evaluate the suitability of the analysis method used in the PT X laboratory with applicable standards. Method: The method used in the NaCl test analysis is titrimetry while the Mg test uses the AAS (Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer) instrument. Results: Based on this analysis, the NaCl content in processed salt samples obtained results of 97% at PT X and 95% at SNI 3556:2016. While the r value in the Mg test is 0.9368.
