Objective: Separation and extraction of Zn(II) and Cd(II) as a neutral compound by used methyl stearate as extractant dissolved in chloroform.
Methods: Applications of separation and extraction according to solvation method from nitrate aqueous solution by used methyl stearate which is
binding coordinally with nitrate salt of metal under study Zn(II) and Cd(II).
Results: The extracted species have λmax=263 nm for Zn2+ and λmax=346 nm for Cd2+. The studies about limitation optimum condition for extraction
show 0.3 M salting out effect KNO3 for Zn2+ and 0.7 M KNO3 for Cd2+ in present 100 μg Zn2+/5 ml and 50 μg Cd2+/5 ml with optimum shaking time
15 minutes for both ions.
Conclusion: The separation by solvation method shows high sensitivity and selectivity in addition to high extraction efficiency for separation Zn(II)
and Cd(II). As well illustrate the important rule of kind and concentration of salting out agent and different extractions efficiency with differ extractant.
