Penentuan Kadar Nitrit pada Beberapa Air Sungai di Kota Medan dengan Metode Spektrofotometri (Visible)

Abstract

Nitrit (NO2) is usually found in a number of the very few less than on nitrate, because it is not stable with the presence of oxygen. Nitrit parameters were measured using the method spektrofotometri UV-Visible, with a maximum wavelength 543 nm. Measurement results expressed in mg/L. From the results of the analysis can be made that the water level in rivers nitrit deli 0.0196 mg / l, water babura river upstream 0.0688 mg / l, babura river water downstream 0.1420 mg / l, the river water belumai 0.0049 mg / l, the river water tembung 0.1039 mg / l most nitrit ion content in the river water does not meet the standard nitrit at Law No. 82 of 2001 which is 0.06 mg / l which is about the processing of water quality and water pollution control.
