We studied the influence of sulfate concentration on the effective mob
ilities of mono-, di- and tervalent ions and developed a method for th
e determination of sulfate stability constants. Relative migration tim
es of several cations were determined. Capillary electrophoresis with
indirect detection using 4 mmol/l copper(II) sulfate, 18-crown-6 and f
ormic acid in background electrolyte was then applied to the determina
tion of the metal ions in mineral and tap waters samples. The results
were compared with those of ion chromatography. The CE detection limit
s were estimated [signal/noise ratio (S/N)=3] in the range from 0.59 (
for Li) to 12.9 mg/l (for Ba).
