The Kjeldahl method was used to determine the nitrogen content of a soil sample. 25 g soil sample was digested and the liberated ammonia distilled into 10 mL of 0.05 M HCI, which was used in the subsequent back titration. The unreacted HCL required 13.25 mL of 0.025 M NaOH for complete titration. Calculate the Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen (TKN) in mgkg-' N.
