   • Before using it, the crucible and the lid were weighed first using an analytical balance.
   • Put the crusible between the clay triangle holes to shore.
   • Put the material into the crusible, then heat it up at high temperatures until all the volatile and steam is out of the sample.
   • Once heated, cool the crucible and the lid inside the deacon for a few minutes.
