Abstract
The conditions for the surfactant rich phase of Triton X-100 formation and the extraction of Copper (II) as a complex with 6,7-dihydroxy-2,4-diphenylbenzopyrylium chloride at room temperature have been optimized. It was shown that the sodium salt of p-toluic acid can be used as a chemical initiator of cloud point extraction. The optimal conditions for room temperature cloud point extraction were found to be: pH 5.0; 1 v/v.% Triton X-100; 3.75·10-2M sodium salt of p-toluic acid and the addition of 0.5M H2SO4 solution to pH 5.0. The formation of the surfactant rich phase begins instantly. The 2-propanol was proposed as a diluent for the surfactant rich phase. The calibration graph is linear in the range of Copper (II) concentrations of 6-870μg/L, and the limit of detection and limit of determination are 1.8 and 6μg/L, respectively. The proposed method was successfully applied for the spectrophotometric determination of Copper (II) in water samples with a relative standard deviation not exceeding 4.5%.
