Abstract: | Traces of silver and amounts up to 50 mg can be separated from up to gram amounts of Zn, Cu(II), Ni, Co(II), Mg, Be, Ti(IV), V(IV), Li and Na by eluting these with 2.0M nitric acid from a column containing 54 ml (20 g) of macroporous AG MP-50 cation-exchange resin of 100-200 mesh particle size, in the H(+)-form. Silver is retained and can be eluted with 0.5M hydrobromic acid in 9:1 v v acetone-water. Separations are sharp and quantitative and only a few microg of the other elements are found in the silver fraction. Cadmium and manganese (II) can also be separated quantitatively but show tailing and require larger elution volumes. Some typical elution curves and results of analyses of synthetic mixtures are presented. |
