1.     Weight and put a certain amount of ferrous sulfate in a conical flask.
2.     Mix 3 mol/L sulfuric acid and 85% phosphoric acid together and add the dissolved solution in the flask.
3.     With diphenylamine sulfonate as indicator, titrate with prepared potassium dichromate solution.
4.     When ferric iron deoxidated into bivalent iron, then the total ferrous iron consumption could be counted .
