    Abstract:
    A new spectrophotometric method for the determination of gallium with Pontachrome Azure Blue B and cetyltrimethylammonium chloride is described. The sensitivity of the colour reaction between gallium and Pontachrome Azure Blue B is greatly increased in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium chloride. The gallium complex has maximal absorbance at 680 nm and pH 6.0-6.6. Beer's law is obeyed over the range 0.08-0.6 ppm of gallium; the molar absorptivity is 1.39 x 10(5) 1.mole(-1). cm(-1) and sensitivity 4.9 x 10(-4) mu/cm(2). The mole ratio of the complex, the formation constant and effect of interfering ions are described.
