A p H‐DEPENDENT MODEL FOR THE CHEMICAL SPECIATION OF COPPER, ZINC, CADMIUM, AND LEAD IN SEAWATER

Zirino, Alberta, Yamamoto, Sachio·1972·Limnology and Oceanography

Abstract

A p H‐dependent model for the speciation of divalent Cu, Zn, Cd, and Pb ions in seawater was constructed with available and estimated thermodynamic stability constants and individual ion activity coefficients. This model was used to calculate the degree of interaction between each of the metal ions and the anions Cl−, SO 42−, HCO 3−, CO 32−, and OH− as a function of p H. Interactions between a cation and an anion were assumed to result only in the formation of complexes with coordination numbers of 1 to 4; polynuclear and mixed‐ligand complexes were not included in the model. The calculations showed the following: All four metals are complexed to a considerable extent in seawater; with the exception of Cd, the distributions of chemical species of the metals vary greatly with changes in pH; Cu interacts primarily with OH− and CO 32−, Zn with OH−, Pb with CO 32− and Cl−, and Cd with Cl−; complexes with high coordination numbers (i.e. 3 and 4) are not formed to any appreciable extent in seawater.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
