Measuring the concentration of lanthanide ion in aqua solution using citrate as the complexing agent

10 October 2012 1 5K Report

According to the literature, (Applied spectrosopy, Volume 47, Number 6, 1993), I should have got an absorption maxima at 240nm.. 1 had taken 1:1 ratio of citric acid and lanthanum chloride but my experiment was unsuccessful.
