摘要
UV-Vis spectroscopy was used to directly determine the concentration of Eu( Ⅱ) during electroreduction of Eu ( Ⅲ ) in hydrochloric acid medium. Electroreduction was carried out in a flow type electrolyzer with glassy carbon cathode at the constant potential of - 800 mV vs. Ag/AgCl. The effects of oxygen and concentration of hydrochloric acid on the system were investigated. For 0.01 mol· L^-1 hydrochloric acid, calibration curves for Eu (Ⅱ) absorption bands at 248 and 320 nm were constructed. Molar absorption coefficients were estimated to be 2016 and 648 L· mol^-1·cm^-1, respectively. The absorbance strongly decreased with decrease in pH of the solution, whereas concentration of chloride had only a negligible effect.
