Abstract

Iron-57 and gold-197 Mössbauer spectra have been taken of activated carbon loaded from aqueous Fe2(SO4)3 and KAu(CN)2 Solutions, respectively. The iron-57 spectra for six different samples of activated carbons exhibited considerable variations, showing more than one active site as well as differ ent sites for the inherent iron, The spectra did not resemble those known previously for either Fe2(SO4)3 or intercalated species. In contrast, the gold-197 parameters agreed very closely with those for KAu(CN)2, consistent with the gold being adsorbed as either Au(CN)- 2 or KAu(CN)2 solutions, resprectively.
