Currently working with equipment-limited Cr quantification methods, specifically for concentrations of 1 to 1000 ppm, I selected a Cr(VI) quantification methodology by direct UV–visible spectrometry using the cite below. However, I am also in need of the quantification of Total Chromium for the additional measurement of Cr(III).
I have noted the possibility of measuring total chromium by converting all chromium species in my sample to Cr(VI), I would like to know suggested methodologies for this conversion and measurement. Thank you.
