    Abstract:
    A sensitive spectrophotometric method for zinc has been established by reacting zinc with 2-(3,5-dibromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-diethylaminophenol (3,5-diBr-PADAP) in the presence of an anionic surfactant, sodium lauryl sulphate. The molar absorptivity is 1.3 x 10(5) l.mole(-1).cm(-1) at 570 nm. The molar ratio of zinc to 3,5-diBr-PADAP is 1:2. Beer's law is obeyed up to 0.7 ppm of zinc. With preseparation of zinc by extraction of its thiocyanate complex, the method has been applied to the determination of zinc in waste water.
