Determination of Trace Iron Ions in Water by Spectrophotometer
Key words: spectrophotometer; trace iron ion; mass spectrometer; V-1200; o-phenanthroline, absorbance, hydroxylamine hydrochloride
1. Foreword
With the rapid development of urbanization and industrialization, although people's living standards have significantly improved, environmental issues have become increasingly serious. Among these problems, water pollution has emerged as a major concern. This study focuses on the determination of trace iron ions in water using a spectrophotometric method.
2. Experimental Theoretical Analysis
2.1 Experimental Analysis
Iron typically exists in the Fe³⺠state. Hydroxylamine hydrochloride is used to reduce it to Fe²⺠through the following reaction:
2Fe³⺠+ 2NHâ‚‚OH·HCl → 2Fe²⺠+ Nâ‚‚ + 4H⺠+ 2Hâ‚‚O + 2Clâ»
Fe²⺠forms a stable orange-red complex with o-phenanthroline at pH 2–9, with maximum absorption at 508 nm. The molar absorptivity (ε₅₀₈) is 1.01 × 10ⴠL/(mol·cm), and the stability constant lgK is 21.3. For accurate measurement, the solution’s pH should be around 5. If the acidity is too high or too low, it can affect the reaction rate or cause hydrolysis of the ions, which may interfere with color development.
The experimental formula for absorbance is given as:
A = εmax * L * C
Where:
- A = absorbance
- εmax = molar absorptivity (L/(mol·cm))
- L = path length (cm)
- C = concentration of iron (mol/L)

1. Regulation of Charging: The primary function of a solar charge controller is to regulate the charging process. It prevents the Solar Panel from supplying excess current to the battery, ensuring that the battery is charged at an optimal rate.
2. Voltage Regulation: It maintains the battery voltage within safe limits, protecting the battery from overcharging or undercharging. This is crucial for extending the life of the battery.
3. Protection: Solar charge controllers provide protection against common issues such as overcharging, deep discharge, short circuits, and reverse polarity. They can also prevent the battery from being discharged when there's no sunlight.
4. Monitoring: Some controllers offer features like real-time monitoring of voltage, current, and power output, allowing users to track the performance of their solar system.
Choosing the right solar charge controller depends on various factors including the size of your solar panel array, the type and capacity of your battery bank, and your specific power needs. By selecting an appropriate controller, you ensure a reliable, efficient, and long-lasting solar power system.
