Abstract
Abstract The zirconium-SPADNS method for the determination of fluoride based on the effect of fluoride ion on the color system (Zr-SPADNS), has been adapted to the continuous flow spectrophotometry. A manifold consisting of two lines was used. the decrease in the absorbance of Zr-SPADNS reagent at 590 nm is linear with fluoride concentration in the range 0.00-3.5 ppm. the method has a detection limit of 0.02 ppm fluoride. At a sampling rate of 50 determinations per hour, the precision was about 1% relative standard deviation. the method is applied to the determination of fluoride in natural water samples. the good agreement between the results obtained by this method and those obtained by a potentiometric method using a fluoride ion-selective electrode, show that the new method is potentially suitable for routine analysis. the effects of reaction conditions, flow parameters, and interferences on the FIA-spectrophotometric signals are reported. amount of interfering ion is present in quantity great enough ...
