This method is based on catalytic effect of silver ion on the oxidation of congo red by potassium peroxodisulphate at pH=3.4 and 30 oC in the presence of 1,10-phenanthroline as an activator. The reaction was followed spectrophotometrically by measuring the rate of change in absorbance of congo red at 510 nm in the range of 30-330 seconds after initiation of the reaction. Silver can be determined in the range 2-100 and 100-1100 ng/ml with detection limit 1 ng/ml. Ten replicate analysis of a sample solution containing 8 ng/ml silver gave a relative standard deviation of 1.0%. This method was used for determination of silver in water and photographic plate samples.}, keywords = {Silver,Catalytic methods,Congo red,Spectrophotometry}, url = {https://ijcce.ac.ir/article_8184.html}, eprint = {https://ijcce.ac.ir/article_8184_fdc4f0e2522ba3b052e6eb1ee94b2d0a.pdf} }
