N. Obarski et Z. Marczenko, DETERMINATION OF TRACE AMOUNTS OF LEAD AS IODIDE COMPLEX BY 3RD-ORDERDERIVATIVE SPECTROPHOTOMETRY, Chemia Analityczna, 39(5), 1994, pp. 577-584
Third-order derivative spectrophotometry was used for the direct deter
mination of trace amounts of lead as its iodide complex. Optimum condi
tions for the formation of the lead iodide complex as well as conditio
ns for spectrum registration and obtaining its successive derivatives
were chosen. The derivatives were calculated numerically using Savitzk
y-Golay method. The proposed direct method has been applied for determ
ining lead (ca. 10(-4)%) in potassium iodide, zinc sulphate and cadmiu
m sulphate with good precision and accuracy.
