Abstract

The results of experimental studies of the composition and specific features of humic substance isolated from typical soils of natural zones are given. The stability constants of metal complexes with humic substance are evaluated. The obtained experimental data are used to calculate the occurrence forms of metals in natural waters in the zones of taiga, forests, and steppes. The occurrence forms of metals are shown to be determined by the general chemistry of natural waters rather than stability constants of complexes with organic matter.
