Photometric technique has been developed for determination of bromide ions in waters; the technique is based on oxidation in an aqueous solution of bromide to bromine by chloramine T, concentration of bromine-derivative fuchsine basic on membrane filters and measurement of lightness of obtained colored concentrates in a thin layer by means of reflection colorimetry. The detection limit of bromide-ions constitutes 10 μg/dm, the linearity of the calibration curve ranges from 10 to 1000 μg/dm. The excess of chloramines T does not interfere with determination, which simplifies and reduces the analysis. The proposed technique is more sensitive, fast and simple in execution than existing standard techniques. It makes it possible to control the content of bromide-ions in waters both at the level and lower than MAC and may be used in field conditions at the site of sampling [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
