Solid Compounds. The tripositive actinide ions resemble tripositive lanthanide ions in their precipitation reactions (13,14,17,20,22). Tetrapositive actinide ions are similar in this respect to Ce . Thus the duorides and oxalates are insoluble in acid solution, and the nitrates, sulfates, perchlorates, and sulfides are all soluble. The tetrapositive actinide ions form insoluble iodates and various substituted arsenates even in rather strongly acid solution. The MO2 actinide ions can be precipitated as the potassium salt from strong carbonate solutions. In solutions containing a high concentration of sodium and acetate ions, the actinide ions form the insoluble crystalline salt NaM02(02CCH2)3. The hydroxides of all four ionic types are insoluble ... 

Wet Process. The sodium arsenate and stannate slag are treated by a leach and precipitation process to produce calcium arsenate, calcium stannate, and a sodium hydroxide solution for recycle. The sodium antimonate filtercake containing selenium, tellurium, and indium is treated in a special metals refinery to recover indium and tellurium. 

Stibonic and Stibinic Acids. The stibonic acids, RSbO(OH)2, and stibinic acids, R2SbO(OH), are quite different in stmcture from their phosphoms and arsenic analogues. The stibonic and stibinic acids are polymeric compounds of unknown stmcture and are very weak acids. lUPAC classifies them as oxide hydroxides rather than as acids. Thus CgH3SbO(OH)2 is named phenyl antimony dihydroxide oxide [535-46-6], the Chemical Abstracts n.2ixn.e is dihydroxyphenylstibine oxide [535-46-6], CgH OgSb. 

In metallic form, barium is very reactive, reacting readily with water to release hydrogen. In aqueous solution it is present as an ion with a +2 charge. Barium acetate, chloride, hydroxide, and nitrate are water-soluble, whereas barium arsenate, chromate, duoride, oxalate, and sulfate are not. Most water-insoluble barium salts dissolve in dilute acids barium sulfate, however, requkes strong sulfuric acid. 

The terms FD C, D C, and External D C (Ext. D C), which are part of the name of colorants, reflect the FDA s colorant certification. FD C dyes may be used for foods, dmgs, and cosmetics D C dyes are allowed in dmgs and cosmetics and Ext. D C dyes are permitted only in topical products. Straight colorants include both the organic dyes and corresponding lakes, made by extending the colorant on a substrate such as aluminum hydroxide or barium sulfate. The pure dye content of these lakes varies from 2 to 80% the organic dyes contain over 80% pure dye. Colorants certified for cosmetic use may not contain more than 0.002% of lead, not more than 0.0002% of arsenic, and not more than 0.003% of heavy metals other than lead and arsenic.

Discussion. Arsenates in solution are precipitated as silver arsenate, Ag3 As04, by the addition of neutral silver nitrate solution the solution must be neutral, or if slightly acid, an excess of sodium acetate must be present to reduce the acidity if strongly acid, most of the acid should be neutralised by aqueous sodium hydroxide. The silver arsenate is dissolved in dilute nitric acid, and the silver titrated with standard thiocyanate solution. The silver arsenate has nearly six times the weight of the arsenic, hence quite small amounts of arsenic may be determined by this procedure. 

Notes. (1) For elementary students, it is sufficient to weigh out accurately about 1.25 g of arsenic(III) oxide, dissolve this in 50 mL of a cool 20 per cent solution of sodium hydroxide, and make up to 250 mL in a graduated flask. Shake well. Measure 25.0 mL of this solution by means of a burette and not with a pipette (caution — the solution is highly poisonous) into a 500 mL conical flask, add 100 mL water, 10 mL pure concentrated hydrochloric acid, one drop potassium iodide solution, and titrate with the permanganate solution to the first permanent pink colour as detailed above. Repeat with two other 25 mL portions of the solution. Successive titrations should agree within 0.1 mL. 

Method A Standardisation with arsenic (III) oxide. Discussion. The most trustworthy method for standardising cerium(IV) sulphate solutions is with pure arsenic(III) oxide. The reaction between cerium(IV) sulphate solution and arsenic(III) oxide is very slow at the ambient temperature it is necessary to add a trace of osmium tetroxide as catalyst. The arsenic(III) oxide is dissolved in sodium hydroxide solution, the solution acidified with dilute sulphuric acid, and after adding 2 drops of an osmic acid solution prepared by dissolving 0.1 g osmium tetroxide in 40mL of 0.05M sulphuric acid, and the indicator (1-2 drops ferroin or 0.5 mL /V-phenylanthranilic acid), it is titrated with the cerium(IV) sulphate solution to the first sharp colour change orange-red to very pale blue or yellowish-green to purple respectively. 

Procedure. Weigh out accurately about 0.2 g of arsenic(III) oxide, previously dried at 105-110 °C for 1-2 hours, and transfer to a 500 mL beaker or to a 500 mL conical flask. Add 20 mL of approx. 2M sodium hydroxide solution, and warm the mixture gently until the arsenic(III) oxide has completely dissolved. Cool to room temperature, and add 100 mL water, followed by 25 mL 2.5M sulphuric acid. Then add 3 drops 0.01 M osmium tetroxide solution (0.25 g osmium tetroxide (CARE FUME CUPBOARD) dissolved in 100 mL 0.05M sulphuric acid) and 0.5 mL AT-phenylanthranilic acid indicator (or 1-2 drops of ferroin). Titrate with the 0.1 M cerium(IV) sulphate solution until the first sharp colour change occurs (see Discussion above). Repeat with two other samples of approximately equal weight of arsenic(III) oxide. 

Procedure. Wdgh out accurately about 2.5g of finely powdered arsenic(III) oxide, transfer to a 500 mL beaker, and dissolve it in a concentrated solution of sodium hydroxide, prepared from 2g of iron-free sodium hydroxide and 20 mL of water. Dilute to about 200 mL, and neutralise the solution with 1M hydrochloric add, using a pH meter. When the solution is faintly add transfer the contents of the beaker quantitatively to a 500 mL graduated flask, add 2 g of pure sodium hydrogencarbonate, and, when all the salt has dissolved, dilute to the mark and shake well. 

If it is desired to base the standardisation directly upon arsenic(III) oxide, proceed as follows. Weigh out accurately about 0.20 g of pure arsenic(III) oxide into a conical flask, dissolve it in 10 mL of 1M sodium hydroxide, and add a small excess of dilute sulphuric acid (say, 12-15 mL of 0.5M acid). Mix thoroughly and cautiously. Then add carefully a solution of 2 g of sodium hydrogencarbonate in 50 mL of water, followed by 2 mL of starch solution. Titrate slowly with the iodine solution to the first blue colour. Repeat with two other similar quantities of the oxide. 

A similar procedure may also be used for the determination of antimony(V), whilst antimony (III) may be determined like arsenic(III) by direct titration with standard iodine solution (Section 10.113), but in the antimony titration it is necessary to include some tartaric acid in the solution this acts as complexing agent and prevents precipitation of antimony as hydroxide or as basic salt in alkaline solution. On the whole, however, the most satisfactory method for determining antimony is by titration with potassium bromate (Section 10.133). 

Standard arsenic solution. Dissolve 1.320 g arsenic(III) oxide in the minimum volume of 1M sodium hydroxide solution, acidify with dilute hydrochloric acid, and make up to 1 L in a graduated flask 1 mL contains 1 mg of As. A solution containing 0.001 mg As per mL is prepared by dilution. 

In addition to effects on the concentration of anions, the redox potential can affect the oxidation state and solubility of the metal ion directly. The most important examples of this are the dissolution of iron and manganese under reducing conditions. The oxidized forms of these elements (Fe(III) and Mn(IV)) form very insoluble oxides and hydroxides, while the reduced forms (Fe(II) and Mn(II)) are orders of magnitude more soluble (in the absence of S( — II)). The oxidation or reduction of the metals, which can occur fairly rapidly at oxic-anoxic interfaces, has an important "domino" effect on the distribution of many other metals in the system due to the importance of iron and manganese oxides in adsorption reactions. In an interesting example of this, it has been suggested that arsenate accumulates in the upper, oxidized layers of some sediments by diffusion of As(III), Fe(II), and Mn(II) from the deeper, reduced zones. In the aerobic zone, the cations are oxidized by oxygen, and precipitate. The solids can then oxidize, as As(III) to As(V), which is subsequently immobilized by sorption onto other Fe or Mn oxyhydroxide particles (Takamatsu et al, 1985).

Precipitation is the most promising method for immobilizing dissolvable metals such as lead, cadmium, zinc, and iron.15 Some forms of arsenic, chromium, mercury, and some fatty acids can also be treated by precipitation.47 The common precipitating chemicals for metal cations are sulfide, phosphate, hydroxide, or carbonate. Among them, sulfide is the most promising, because sulfides have low solubility over a broad pH range. Precipitation is most applicable to sites with sand or coarse silt strata. 

Coprecipitation is a partitioning process whereby toxic heavy metals precipitate from the aqueous phase even if the equilibrium solubility has not been exceeded. This process occurs when heavy metals are incorporated into the structure of silicon, aluminum, and iron oxides when these latter compounds precipitate out of solution. Iron hydroxide collects more toxic heavy metals (chromium, nickel, arsenic, selenium, cadmium, and thorium) during precipitation than aluminum hydroxide.38 Coprecipitation is considered to effectively remove trace amounts of lead and chromium from solution in injected wastes at New Johnsonville, Tennessee.39 Coprecipitation with carbonate minerals may be an important mechanism for dealing with cobalt, lead, zinc, and cadmium.
