Spectrophotometric determination of molybdenum using surfactant-mediated liquid liquid extraction
Spectrophotometric determination of molybdenum using surfactant-mediated liquid liquid extraction
A new spectrophotometric method has been developed for determination of molybdenum using surfactant- mediated liquid liquid extraction. Molybdenum(V) obtained by ascorbic acid reduction in 2.5 M H 2 SO 4 reacted spontaneously with thiocyanate and cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB), forming an intense orange yellow complex that was extracted quantitatively into 1,2-dichloroethane and absorbed at 460 nm. The absorbance of the extract was found to be stable for more than 24 h. Beer s law was obeyed over the concentration range 0.1 4.2 μ g Mo −1 −1mL of the extract. The linear range for an accurate determination was found to be 1.2 2.6 μ g Mo mL . The molar absorptivity and LOD of the procedure were 4.01 × 10 4 L mol −1 cm −1 and 0.00239 μ g Mo mL −1 , respectively. The stoichiometry of the orange yellow complex (Mo:SCN:CTAB) was found to be 1:3:2. The effect of a large number of −1cations, anions, and complexing agents was studied. For 10 replicate determinations of 1 μ g Mo mL , the standard deviation was 0.014 concentration units with a relative mean error of ± 0.38%. The method developed was applied for determination of molybdenum in various alloy steels and a wide variety of biological and environmental samples, including different types of water samples.
