Electron Transfer Studies of TIN(IV)/TIN(II) in Acid Media

Abstract

Cyclic voltammaetry of mixed tin(II)/tin(IV) solutions was investigated in 6M HCl on gold and mercury electrodes. It was found that the reduction of tin(II) to tin(iv) proceeded irreversibly while tin(II) to tin(IV) was reversible. Two forms of tin(IV) are postulated. The peak potential for the reduction of tin(IV) was a function of both tin(II) and tin(IV) while that for the oxidation of tin(II) was a function only of tin(II) concentration Potentials for all oxidations and reductions were a function of potential scan rate.     

Electrochromatography of Metal Ions on Zirconium(IV) Phosphoantimonate Papers: Quantitative Separation of Platinum(IV) from Platinum Group and Other Metal Ions

Abstract

Zirconium (IV) phosphoantimonate impregnated papers have been used to study the electrochromatographic behaviour of 29 metal ions in buffers of weak organic acids with their corresponding ammonium salts as background electrolytes at fixed voltage and time intervals. As a result of these investigations, the variation in the average mobility of metal ions with the ionisation constants of the organic acids used in buffers and other parameters such as atomic numbers and charge on the metal ions has been studied. On the basis of the differential mobilites of the metal ions, which depends on the ion exchange properties of Zr(IV) phosphoantimonate and the nature of the complexes formed with the electrolytes, some binary, ternary and quarternary separation have been achieved. Besides microgram separations (25 μg-100 μg) of Pt(TV) from Pt group and other metal ions have also been achieved.     

Sorption of Some Metal Ions on Inorganic Electron and Ion Exchangers Based on Zirconium(IV)

Conditions of sorption of nonferrous metal ions on inorganic electron and ion exchangers based on zirconium(IV) were analyzed. The sorption capacity was evaluated as influenced by pH, concentration, and temperature of the contacting solutions and nature and chemical composition of the ion exchanger.     

Cation Exchange and Sorption Properties of TIN(IV) Phosphate

The ion exchange and sorption properties of crystalline Tin bis(monohydrogen orthophosphate) monohydrate of composition Sn(HPO(4))(2).H(2)O were studied in an aqueous solution of KCl over the temperature range 300-320 K, varying the pH and metal ion concentration in the solution. The data were explained on the basis of the law of chemical equilibrium. The metal ion sorption data were fitted to the Langmuir adsorption equation to evaluate the Langmuir parameters. The extent of adsorption was found to increase with an increase in temperature and metal ion concentration in the selectivity order Cu(2+)>Co(2+)>Ni(2+). The Langmuir parameters were used to calculate the thermodynamic functions like standard entropy, enthalpy, and free energy changes during the process of sorption.

Sorption of Metal Ions on Clay Minerals

The mechanism of Co uptake from aqueous solution onto hectorite (a magnesian smectite) and its impact on the stability of this clay mineral were investigated as a function of Co concentration (TotCo = 20 to 200 μM, 0.3 M NaNO(3)) and ionic strength (0.3 and 0.01 M NaNO(3), TotCo = 100 μM) by combining kinetics measurements and Co K-edge extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy. The morphology of the sorbent phase was characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and consists of lath-type particles bounded by large basal planes and layer edges. At low ionic strength (0.01 M NaNO(3)), important Co uptake occurred within the first 5 min of reaction, consistent with Co adsorption on exchange sites of hectorite basal planes. Thereafter, the sorption rate dramatically decreased. In contrast, at high ionic strength (0.3 M NaNO(3)), Co uptake rate was much slower within the first 5 min and afterward higher than at 0.01 M NaNO(3), consistent with Co adsorption on specific surface sites located on the edges of hectorite. Time-dependent isotherms for Co uptake at high ionic strength indicated the existence of several sorption mechanisms having distinct equilibration times. The dissolution of hectorite was monitored before and after Co addition. A congruent dissolution regime was observed prior to Co addition. Just after Co addition, an excess release of Mg relatively to congruent dissolution rates occurred at both high and low ionic strengths. At high ionic strength, this excess release nearly equaled the amount of sorbed Co. The dissolution rate of hectorite then decreased at longer Co sorption times. EXAFS spectra of hectorite reacted with Co at high and low ionic strengths and for reaction times longer than 6 h, exhibited similar features, suggesting that the local structural environments of Co atoms are similar. Spectral simulations revealed the occurrence of approximately 2 Mg and approximately 2 Si neighboring cations at interatomic distances characteristic of edge-sharing linkages between Co and Mg octahedra and corner-sharing linkages between Co octahedra and Si tetrahedra, respectively. This local structure is characteristic of inner sphere mononuclear surface complexes at layer edges of hectorite platelets. The occurrence of these complexes even at low ionic strength apparently conflicts with kinetics results, as exchangeable divalent cations are known to form outer sphere surface complexes. To clarify this issue, the amount of Co adsorbed on exchange sites was calculated from the solute Co concentration, assuming that cation exchange was always at equilibrium. These calculations showed that sorbed Co was transferred within 48 h from exchange sites to edge sorption sites. Copyright 1999 Academic Press.

Effect of Mn(II) and Ce(IV) Ions on the Oxidation of Lactic Acid by Chromic Acid

The kinetics and mechanism of lactic acid oxidation in the presence of Mn(II) and Ce(IV) ions by chromic acid were studied spectrophotometrically. The oxidation of lactic acid by Cr(VI) was found to proceed in two measurable steps, both of which gave pyruvic acid as the primary product in the absence of Mn(II). 2Cr(VI)+2CH₃CHOHCOOH → 2CH₃COCOOH+Cr(V)+Cr(III) Cr(V)+CH₃CHOHCOOH → Cr(III)+CH₃COCOOHThe observed kinetics was explained due to the catalytic and inhibitory effects of Mn(II) and Ce(IV) on the lactic acid oxidation by Cr(VI). The reactivity of lactic acid depends upon the experimental conditions. It acts as a two-or three-equivalent reducing agent in the absence or presence of Mn(II). It was examined that Cr(III) products resulting from the direct reduction of Cr(VI) by three-equivalent reducing agents. The oxidation of lactic acid follows the complex order kinetics with respect to [lactic acid]. The activation parameters E_a, ΔH^#, and ΔS^# were calculated and discussed.     

Retention of Some Metal Ions and Their Separation on Silica Gel Modified with Acid Red 88

 Acid Red 88 is strongly extracted by chloroform solutions of Aliquat 336 by an ion exchange mechanism and for its reextraction from the ion pair formed, relatively high concentrations of mineral acids are required. By impregnation of silica with the ion pairs between the cation of Aliquat 336 and the anion of the dye a chelating sorbent for metal ions can be obtained. The sorbent prepared may be successfully used for separation of mixtures of various metal ions by the column extraction chromatography technique, additional purification of sodium and potassium salts from ions of heavy metals and for concentration of trace amounts of ions of various metals from aqueous solutions followed by their quantitative determination. The sorbent can be used repeatedly in the process of sorption and desorption of metal ions (especially those forming less stable complexes with the reagent) after regeneration with solutions of perchloric acid.

Separation of Selected Transition Metal Ions and Divalent Metal Ions by HPLC Using UV-VIS Detection

Abstract

The use of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, disodium salt, (pH 3-5) has been investigated as an eluant for the separation and detection of nanogram levels of selected divalent and trivalent metal ions. The effect of pH and eluant concentration upon the retention times and resolution of the system are given and the ability to alter the eluant characteristics to optimize the chromatographic results in different situations will be discussed. The method is less complicated than the method frequently used for transition metal ion determinations which uses a post-column derivitization reagent. This method is applicable to a wider range of metal ions and provides detection limits which are generally within two orders of magnitude of the post-column derivitization method.
