An Attempt To Determine Molybdenum By Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry, Gary Rice
An Attempt To Determine Molybdenum By Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry, Gary Rice
Honors Theses
An attempt was made to work out a method for routinely determining molybdenum by atomic absorption spectrophotometry. A stock standard was prepared containing 100 ppm molybdenum as MO4. Sensitivity of the spectrophotometer was found to be zero for aqueous solutions in the 1-10 ppm range. A pH-dependence study of extraction of the molybdate with DDC and MIBK gave best results at about pH 4.
