Abstract

Aquatic chemists and by extension the public sector have a fundamental methodology through which they can determine serious metal concentrations in liquid. This thesis discusses the use of hydroxylamine coordination compounds followed by the complexation with the ligand; one and 10-phenanthroline as the technique for the determination of iron concentration in solutions. Technique used is spectrophotometry. From the analysis, it was established that iron(II) and iron(lll) demonstrate different properties when reacted. In this regard, the spectrophotometric analysis conducted was a success in identifying and differentiating between the two solutions of iron with different oxidation states.
