Abstract
Lead is used in many industrial products, including alloys, because of its importance in improving physical and chemical properties. In this study, a sensitive, simple, economical, fast and accurate, an indirect spectral analytical method was developed using Eriochrome Black T as chelating agent without use of separation and isolation to estimate the amount of lead in the Cu-Zn-Pb bronze alloy by using UV-Visible spectrophotometer instrument. The accuracy of the method was 99.97 ± 0.35 and the limits of detection (LOD) and qualification (LOQ) were 0.034 and 0.104 µg ml−1 respectively. The developed method can be applied to water, biological, environmental and fuel samples.
