Abstract
A method has been developed for the determination of trace amounts of palladium using radioactive mercury dithizonate as the reagent. Experimental conditions for the quantitative displacement of mercury from the reagent, calibration graph and the interfering effects of various ions have been studied. The method is sensitive down to 2 μg of palladium present in 10 ml of the aqueous solution.
