A. Nabi et al., DETERMINATION OF LEAD IN AQUEOUS SYSTEM BY FLOW-INJECTION TECHNIQUE COUPLED WITH SPECTROPHOTOMETER, Journal of the Chemical Society of Pakistan, 18(1), 1996, pp. 25-28
A spectrophotometric flow injection procedure for the determination of
lead is described. The procedure is based on measurement of absorbanc
e from the colour produced by the reaction of lead with sodium sulfide
in the presence of ammonia. Results are presented for lead at a sampl
e throughput of 60 h(-1) and repeatability is 1.5% at 1000 mg/dl. The
method is well demonstrated by analyzing lead in lead-ores which were
pre-determined by using atomic absorption spectroscopy.
