Passivation bath titration calculations






Anyone have the formulas for calculating %v HNO3 and %wt Na2Cr2O7 using 1.0 N NaOH [1N NaOH on Amazon [affil link] and 0.1N sodium thiosulphate ⇦ on eBay or Amazon [affil link] ? I've been using the same ones for the past 20 years. They work. But I don't remember how I calculated them or where I found them.
