15、ortion of the sampleafter a hydrochloric-nitric acid digestion (12.2-12.5). The samedigestion procedure is used to determine all total recoverableelements in this test method.NOTE 1The volatility of mercury3,4compounds, especially the chlo-rides, makes it necessary to use considerable care in digest
16、ing samplescontaining these elements. The samples must not be boiled unlessprovision is made to prevent loss by volatilization.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is useful for the determination ofelement concentrations in many natural waters. It has thecapability for the simultaneous determ
17、ination of up to 15separate elements. High analysis sensitivity can be achievedfor some elements, such as boron and vanadium.6. Interferences6.1 For commonly occurring matrix elements the followingspectral interferences have been observed:6.1.1 Calcium, magnesium, and boron interfere with lead at405
18、.78 nm.6.1.2 Calcium interferes with chromium at 425.43 nm.6.1.3 Magnesium interferes with cadmium at 214.44 nm.6.1.4 Iron interferes with cobalt at 345.35 and 240.73 nm.6.1.5 Cobalt interferes with nickel at 341.48 nm.NOTE 2The exact magnitude of these interferences has not beendetermined since it
19、depends on the concentration of the calibrationstandards used and the sample matrix.6.2 Some additional possible interferences are listed inAnnexA2 (TableA2.1) so that the analyst may be aware of andtest for them.7.

Unless otherwise indicated, it is intended thatreagents shall conform to the specifications of the Committeeon Analytical Reagents of
21、the American Chemical Society5where such specifications are available. Other grades may beused, provided it is first ascertained that the reagent is ofsufficient purity to permit its use without lessening the accu-racy of the determination.8.2 Purity of Water Unless otherwise indicated, referenceto
22、water shall be understood to mean reagent water conformingto Type I of Specification D 1193. Other reagent water typesmay be used, provided it is first ascertained that the water is ofsufficiently high purity to permit its use without lessening thebias and precision of the determination. Type II wat

24、ochloric acid.8.5 Hydrochloric Acid, (1 + 1) Add one volume of HCl(sp gr 1.19) to one volume of water.8.6 Lithium Carbonate, ultrapure.8.7 Lithium Solution (40 000 mg/L)Dissolve 213 g ofultrapure lithium carbonate in a minimum amount of HCl (spgr 1.19) and dilute to 1 L with water.8.8 Concentrated N
25、itric Acid, (HNO3), (sp gr 1.42)High-purity acid can be prepared by distillation of concentrated nitricacid from a sub-boiling quartz still or it can be commerciallypurchased.8.9 Dilute Nitric Acid, (1+1)Add one volume of HNO3(sp. gr. 1.42) to one volume of water.8.10 Dilute Nitric Acid, (1 + 499) A
26、dd one volume ofHNO3(sp gr 1.42) to 499 volumes of water.NOTE 3If a high reagent blank is obtained on either HNO3or HCl,distill the acid or use high purity acid. When HCl is distilled, an azeotropicmixture is obtained (approximately 6 N HCl); therefore, wheneverconcentrated HCl is specified in the p
27、reparation of a reagent or in theprocedure, use double the amount if distilled acid is used.9. Precautions9.1 Emission intensities are affected by changing viscosityso it is important to control the viscosity of blanks, standards,and samples within reasonable limits. Reagent water standardsshould no
28、t be used to analyze oil field brines. Alternatively,matrix matching or the method of additions can be used.9.2 Organic solvents, such as alcohol, acetone, and methylethyl ketone have been observed to enhance emission intensity.This enhancement effect must be compensated for whenorganic solvents are
29、 known to be present. Alternatively, matrixmatching or the method of additions can be used.10. Sampling10.1 Collect the samples in accordance with the applicablestandards, Practice D 1066 or Practices D 3370.10.2 Preserve the samples by immediately adding highpurity nitric acid to adjust the pH to t
30、wo at the time ofcollection. Normally 2 mL of HNO3is required per liter ofsample. If only dissolved elements are to be determined, (Note4) filter the sample through a 0.45 m membrane filter beforeacidification. The holding time for the sample may be calcu-lated in accordance with Practice D 4841.NOT
31、E 4Depending on the manufacturer, these filters have been foundto be contaminated to various degrees with heavy metals. Care should beexercised in selecting a source of these filters. A good practice is to washthe filters with nitric acid and reagent water before filtering a sample.3Standard Methods

34、 Standardization11.1 Prepare 100 mL of a blank and at least four standardsolutions to bracket the expected concentration range of thesamples to be analyzed by diluting 5.0 mL of lithium solution(see 8.7) and an appropriate volume of stock solution withHNO3(1 + 499). Prepare the blank and standards e
35、ach time thetest is to be run.11.2 Atomize the blank and standards and record the emis-sion intensity or concentration. Atomize HNO3(1 + 499)between each standard.11.3 Using the instrument software verify that the instru-ment calibration is within user acceptable QC limits.12. Procedure12.1 To deter
36、mine dissolved elements, add 5.0 mL oflithium solution (see 8.7) to a 100.0 mL volumetric flask andbring to volume with the well-mixed acidified sample. Proceedwith 12.6.12.2 When determining total recoverable elements in solu-tions containing suspended matter or large particles (that is,noncolloida
37、l), add 5.0 mL of HNO3(sp. gr. 1.42) and 5.0 mLof lithium solution to a 100.0-mL sample.NOTE 5When digestion is necessary, subject the standards, sample,and blank to the same procedure.12.3 Add 5.0 mL of HCl (sp. gr. 1.19) to each sample.12.4 Heat the samples in a covered beaker on a steam bathor ho
38、t plate until the volume has been reduced to 15 or 20 mL.Take care to see that the samples do not boil. Loss of samplecould result from bumping or spattering.NOTE 6For samples with high levels of dissolved solids, the amountof reduction in volume is left to the discretion of the analyst.12.5 Cool an
39、d filter the samples, if necessary, through a fineashless filter paper into 100.0 mL volumetric flasks. Wash thefilter paper three times with water and adjust to volume.12.6 Atomize each solution and record its emission intensityor concentration. Atomize HNO3(1 + 499) between samples.13. Calculation
40、13.1 Calculate the concentration of elements in eachsample, in mg/L, using the calibrations established in 11.3.Modern DCP instruments will provide the results in thecalibrated concentration units.13.2 Multiply the results for dissolved elements by thedilution factor of 1.05 to correct for the requi
