The results are used to evaluate theorigin of the water, determine if it is a possible pollutant, or ifit is related to a p
8、otential source of a valuable mineral. Forexample, in geochemical studies some correlation data indicatethat fluoride is an indirect indicator of the presence of lithium.6. Interferences6.1 Metal ions such as aluminum and iron (III) interferewith the fluoride determination by forming complexes withf

This solutionalso contains a pH buffer to reduce electrode interference fromhydroxide ions and to prevent the formation of HF. Sodiumchloride is added as ionic strength adjustor. Increasing a
