Lead Complexation by Humic Acids and Their Analogs: A Voltammetric Study

Differential pulse polarography (DPP) was used to assess the interaction of Pb<sup>2+</sup> with various humic acid analogs and several humic acids. DPP analysis demonstrated that the reduction peak maximum (E<sub>p</sub>) for Pb<sup>2+</sup> shifted to more negat...

description Differential pulse polarography (DPP) was used to assess the interaction of Pb<sup>2+</sup> with various humic acid analogs and several humic acids. DPP analysis demonstrated that the reduction peak maximum (E<sub>p</sub>) for Pb<sup>2+</sup> shifted to more negative values in the presence of humic acids and humic acid analogs. The observed E<sub>p</sub> for Pb<sup>2+</sup> in the presence of humic acids and humic acid analogs is influenced by ligand concentration, solution pH and Pb<sup>2+</sup> concentration. Shifts in the E<sub>p</sub> for Pb<sup>2+</sup> are related to the reduction potential and can be rationalized using the Lingane equation.
