DETERMINATION OF PHOSPHATE IN WASTE WATER SAMPLE

REAGENTS

1. Ammonium molybdate :

 Take 25gm of ammonium molybdate is dissolved in 175ml D.W in a beaker

 280ml conc. H2SO4 is added to 400ml D.W & cooled another beaker
 Now mix both the solution & 1000ml D.W is added

2. Stannous chloride : 2.5gm Stannous chloride is dissolved in 100 ml glycerol & heated in water bath

3. Std. phosphate solution: 219.5mg of dried potassium hydrogen phosphate is dissolved in D.W &
1000ml D.W 1ml = 50µg of phosphate

10ml of stock solution is taken & 1000ml D.W is added. Now 1ml = 0.05 mg of phosphate
