Determination of gold using clay modified carbon paste electrode.
Sorption of gold(III) chlorocomplexes was studied by means of a carbon paste electrode modified with montmorillonite. Anionic exchange behavior was found in chloride media with low ionic strength. Anionic sorption of [AuCl4]- can be used as a preconcentration step to the determination of Au(III). Linear calibration dependences were found in the concentration range 4.06 x 10(-6) - 1.22 x 10(-5) mol/L Au(III) after 5 min of sorption and in the range 8.12 x 10(-7) - 6. 1 x 10(-6) mol/L after 10 min of sorption. Interferences of several anions and cations were studied. Model samples of table water were analyzed.
