Abstract:
      A colored coordination complex was formed by Zn2 + and xylenol orange in pH 6.0 hexamethylenetetramine buffer solution. The color faded at 570 nm and formed at 430 nm. The results show that △A=A440-A570 is linearly related to the Zn2 + concentration within certain range. The double-wavelength spectrophotometry for the determination of Zn2 + content is established. Lambert-Bill laws were implemented when the Zn2 + concentration ranged from 0.1 to 0.6 μg/mL. The detection limit was 1.5×10-2 μg/mL. The method, which is simple and accurate, has been applied to the determination of zinc in Abutilon fruit. The relative standard deviation was less than 5% and the recovery was between 95.0% and 96.0%.
