3A.3. Analysis

The hitch weight of 5,000 g was placed in a heat-resistant glass with a capacity of 250−300 cm3, flow of 15 cm3 of nitric acid and decomposed under the watch glass when heated. The resulting solution is evaporated to a syrupy condition (on the surface of bubbles appear), remove from heat, add 70 cm3 of water and 5 cm3 of a solution of lanthanum was mixed by rotating the glass. It is then heated to a temperature of 70 °C and poured gradually to 20−25 cm3 of ammonia until the complete disappearance of abundant flocculent precipitate of cadmium hydroxide.

The solution is allowed to stand for 30 min at the edge of the plate. During this time, the bottom of the glass will appear white, but with sufficient content of iron of a reddish precipitate. The precipitate was filtered off, washed 2−3 times with hot solution of ammonia (1:19) and wash with filter water into a glass, which was carried out the deposition. The filter is washed with 25−30 cm3 of hot hydrochloric acid (1:1) with the addition of 3−5 drops of hydrogen peroxide and then with hot water. Boil the resulting solution to remove excess hydrogen peroxide and obtain a volume of approximately 1 cm3. Poured 1.5 cm3 of hydrochloric acid and transferred to a volume of 20 cm3 using a measuring cylinder.

Measure the magnitude of the absorption of the iron line of 248.3 nm according to GOST 12072.0.

If the sensitivity of the device is not able to measure iron in the translation of hitch weight 5,000 g in a volume of 20 cm3, it is possible to use a weighed mass of 10.00 g when translated into the volume of 10 cm3. The number of nitric acid for the decomposition of samples and the amount of ammonia is doubled, and the amount of hydrochloric acid consumed in the translation of the volume is halved or replaced by the same quantity of hydrochloric acid solution (1:1).

To build a calibration curve in eight of the nine volumetric flasks with a capacity of 100 cm3 measured 5.0 and 10.0 cm3 of a standard solution and 2,0; 4,0; 6,0; 8,0; 10,0 and 12,0 cm3 of a standard solution And in each flask add 15 cm3 of hydrochloric acid solution (1:1), made up to the mark with distilled water and mix. The obtained iron concentration in the calibration samples correspond to: 0,5; 1,0; 2,0; 4,0; 6,0; 8,0; 10,0 and 12.0 mg/DM3.
