Abstract

Equilibrium of the reaction of tungsten(VI) with ethylenediaminediacetic acid (EDDA) has been investigated in aqueous solution of pH 7.5 and 25°C. All measurements have been carried out at different ionic strengths ranging from (0.1 to 1.0) mol dm−3 (NaClO4). According to our results the metal to ligand ratio is 1: 1. Stability constants and stoichiometry of the complex have been determined from a combination of potentiometric and UV spectroscopic measurements. In this semi-empirical model, two parameters have been introduced in a Debye-Huckel type equation based on the Gauss—Newton nonlinear least-squares method and minimizing the sum of the squares of the errors. Comparison of the ionic strength effect on these complex formation reactions has been made using a Debye-Huckel type equation and Bronsted—Guggenheim—Scatchard specific ion interaction theory (SIT).
