Ion-exchanger colorimetry-VII Microdetermination of iron(II) and iron(III) in natural water.
A trace method for iron, based on ion-exchanger colorimetry, has been developed. 1,10-Phenanthroline is used as the colour reagent for iron(II) and citrate as the masking reagent for iron(III). Total iron can be determined after reduction of iron(III) to iron(II) with hydroxylamine. It is possible to determine iron at mug/l.-levels in different oxidation states in natural waters.
