title: Triphenyltetrazolium chloride for determination of iodate and periodate.
abstract: Optimum conditions for complexation in the systems triphenyl-tetrazolium chloride-iodate-iodide-dichlorethane and triphenyltetrazolium chloride-periodate-iodide-dichlorethane were found. The molar absorptivity of the complex was 7.48 x 10(4) 1. mole(-1). cm(-1) for the iodate, and 9.09 x 10(4)1. mole(-1) cm(-1) for the periodate. Beer's law is adhered to in the range of 0.04-0.7 mug/ml for iodate and 0.02-0.35 mug/ml for periodate. The influence of foreign ions was studied. Cr(VI), Hg(II) and S(2)O(2-)(3) interfere. The proposed method has been applied to analysis of iodate and periodate in fresh water.
