A new method for the separate determination of Chromium(III) (Cr(III)), Chromium(VI) (Cr(VI)), and Cr(III) acetylacetonate (Cr(acac)(3)) in water was developed using a cation-exchange extraction disk (CED) and an anionexchange extraction disk (AED) combined with metal furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (MFAAS). A 100-mL water sample was adjusted to pH 5.6 and passed through the CED placed on the AED. Cr(acac)(3) and Cr(III) were adsorbed on the CED, and Cr(VI) was adsorbed on the AED. The adsorbed Cr(acac)(3) was eluted with 50 mL of carbon tetrachloride, followed by the elution of Cr( III) with 50 mL of 3 mol L-1 nitric acid. Cr(VI) was eluted with 50 mL of 3 mol L-1 nitric acid. The chemical species of Cr eluted from the CED with carbon tetrachloride was identified as Cr(acac)(3) using infrared spectroscopy. The eluate of Cr(acac)(3) was diluted to 100 mL with carbon tetrachloride, and those of COI) and Cr(VI) were diluted to 100 mL with deionized water. All of the solutions were subsequently analyzed by MFAAS. The calibration curve for the Cr(acac)(3) aqueous solutions exhibited good linearity in the range of 0.1 to 1 ng. The detection limit of Cr, which corresponded to three times the standard deviation (n = 10) of the blank values, was 20 pg. The recovery test for Cr(III), Cr(V1), and Cr(acac)(3) exhibited desirable results (96.0%-107%) when 5 mu g of each species (50 mu g L-1) was added to 100 mL water samples (i.e., tap water, rainwater, and bottled drinking water). In a humic acid solution, Cr(acac)(3) was quantitatively recovered (103%), but Cr( III) and Cr(VI) exhibited poor recoveries (i.e., 84.8% and 78.4%, respectively).
