SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC DETERMINATION OF IONS OF VARIOUS ELEMENTS

Abstract

The special branch of analytical chemistry, spectroscopy is dealing with phenomena (emission, fluorescence, absorption, reflexion) accompanying the interaction between material and electromagnetic radiation. Spectroscopy is suitable for the determination of the structure and composition of materials. In the present comprehensive paper the application of molecular absorption spectra recorded in the ultraviolet (UV) and visible (VIS) spectral range for the quantitative analysis of inorganic ions is surveyed. The study has been prepared in tabulated form on the basis of books listed in [1-7]. The books and spectrum atlas presented in Ref. [7] and [8] are of use in the qualitative and quantitative analysis of organic compounds. Several fundamental books of UV -VIS spectroscopy (spectrophotometry) can be found in references entitled books [1-25]. In references under heading "Atlas of Spectral Data" [1-12] the important catalogues are presented.
