The determination and speciation of copper at a carbon paste electrode modified with Dowex 5OW-8X cation-exchange resin was investigated in model and real samples. With this procedure free metal ions and labile complexes can be measured which dissociate during the time scale of the chemical accumula

✦ Synopsis
A procedure based on the stripping voltammetric determination of labile copper after its chemical accumulation on a graphite electrode modified with a complexation agent and a Nafion fihn is described. The method is sufficiently sensitive for the copper determination in the nM to PM range with a relative standard deviation of 1 to 6%. The detection window of the proposed technique is similar to that of conventional differential pulse polarography. Results for the copper speciation and the copper complexation capacity in model samples and in river waters are presented. A mathematical description of competitive complexation equilibria is discussed.
