Under the optimum experimental conditions ((i.e.,)pH=1.6, c (KI)=10.6 mmol/L, c (H 2O 2)=5.4 mmol/L, c (C 6H 8O 6)=1.30 mmol/L) derived from simplex operations, trace molybdenum(VI) was determined through the agency of its catalytic effect on the reaction of H 2O 2 with I- in acid medium. The detection limit and linear calibration range of molybdenum were obtained as 0.5×10-6 mol/L and 0.5×10-6~120×10-6 mol/L respectively. This method was applied to the examination of the industrial waste water, and the recovery ratios were found to be in the range of 101% and 107%.
