Trace measurements of rhodium by adsorptive stripping voltammetry
Abstract:
A sensitive stripping voltammetric procedure for quantifying rhodium is described. The complex of rhodium with chloride ions is adsorbed on the hanging mercury drop electrode, and the reduction current of the accumulated complex is measured during a negative-going scan. Cyclic voltammetry is used to characterize the interfacial and redox behaviors. The effect of pH, chloride concentration, accumulation potential and other variables is discussed. The detection limit is 1 x 10(-8)M ( approximately 1 ng/ml) with 5-min accumulation. A linear current-concentration relationship is observed up to 7 x 10(-7)M and the relative standard deviation (at the 2 x 10(-7)M level) is 3.0%. Possible interferences by co-existing metals are investigated.
