Summary

A spectrophotometric procedure is presented for the determination of cobalt as the cobalt(II)-5-sulfosalicylic acid complex. Absorbance measurements at 325 nm in solutions adjusted to pH 9.0 with ammonium hydroxide and containing boric acid-potassium chloride-sodium hydroxide buffer obey Beer's law for concentrations up to 40.0μg of cobalt per ml. The molar absorptivity of the complex is 2670 l/mol/cm at 325 nm.

Zusammenfassung

Ein spektrophotometrisches Verfahren zur Bestimmung von Kobalt als 5-Sulfosalizylsäure-Komplex wurde vorgeschlagen. Die Absorption bei 325 nm entspricht dem Beer'schen Gesetz, wenn die Lösungen bis zu 40μg Co/ml enthalten, mit Ammoniumhydroxid auf pH 9,0 eingestellt wurden und mit Borsäure, Kaliumchlorid und Natronlauge gepuffert sind. Der Extinktionskoeffizient des Komplexes beträgt bei 325 nm 2670 1. Mol−1, cm−1.
