Effect of Anions on the Development of Color Reactions of Cadmium, Lead, and Mercury with Dithizone and 4-(2-Pyridylazo)resorcinol on a Fibrous Material Filled with the Anion Exchanger AV-17

The effect of nitrates, chlorides, iodides, sulfates, thiosulfates, thiocyanates, acetates, tartrates, nitrilotriacetates, and ethylenediaminetetraacetates in the sorption of Cd(II), Pb(II), and Hg(II) and their subsequent determination with dithizone and 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol (PAR) on the solid phase of a fibrous anion-exchange sorbent filled with AV-17 was studied. The dependences of the analytical signals of complexes adsorbed on the solid phase on the concentration of anions in the solution and on the stability of anionic complexes were revealed. The analytical signals in the sorption and determination of Cd, Pb, and Hg with dithizone and PAR on the solid phase were maximum for iodide and thiosulfate complexes. Conditions of the sorption of Cd(II), Pb(II), and Hg(II) were found for their subsequent total and separate determination with PAR and dithizone.
