A simple, rapid and selective complexometric method is proposed for the determination of mercury(II). Mercury(II) is first complexed with a known excess of EDTA and the surplus EDTA is back-titrated at pH 5.0-6.0 with lead nitrate, Xylenol Orange being used as indicator. 2-Imidazolidinethione is then added to displace EDTA from the Hg-EDTA complex quantitatively and the EDTA released is titrated with lead nitrate. Reproducible and accurate results are obtained for 2-75 mg of mercury, with a relative error of less than 0.3% and standard deviation of less than 0.04 mg.
提出了一种简单、快速且具有选择性的络合滴定法测定汞(II)。首先使汞(II)与已知过量的乙二胺四乙酸(EDTA)络合,然后在pH 5.0 - 6.0条件下用硝酸铅回滴定剩余的EDTA,二甲酚橙用作指示剂。接着加入2 - 咪唑烷硫酮以定量地从汞 - EDTA络合物中置换出EDTA,释放出的EDTA用硝酸铅滴定。对于2 - 75毫克的汞,可获得重现性好且准确的结果,相对误差小于0.3%,标准偏差小于0.04毫克。
