Determination of Arsenic as the Oxidate by Ion Chromatography

Abstract

An ion chromatographic procedure is described for the analysis of arsenic as the oxo anion. The procedure involves oxidations of the arsenic to arsenate in an aqueous solution and injection onto an anion separator column, Comparison is made with a standard wet chemical procedure, and data is presented on reproducibility. In addition, there is a brief discussion of the applicability of this method to the determination of other oxo anions.
