Question

use ion exchange method in analytical separation to separate mercury and nickel from polluted water using analytical steps and protocols.

Expert Solution
Step 1
  •  Basically the river bodies are polluted by the heavy metals like Cadmium,Mercury,nickel.
  • Mainly they are originated from metal planting ,mining,battery manufacturing  company .
  • They are very hazardious to human health .If the heavy metal containing water directly discharged to the water sources then it will be fatal to the aquatic system.
  • Its concentration is high upto 300 mg/ Liter and it must be treated for reusable water.

 

Step 2
  •  Ion exchange is a water treatment method used to remove dissolved ions.
  • Ionic substance removed from water by applying ionic attraction and repulsion theory.
  • The two types of ion exchange method are anionic exchange and cationic exchange .
  • Cationic exchange is used for the positively charged attractive particles and anionic exchange is used for the negatively charged particle.
