FOREWORD The Subcommittee on Radiochemistry is one of a number of subcommittees working under the Committee on Nuclear Science within the National Academy of Sciences - National Research Council. Its members represent government, industrial, and university laboratories in the areas of nuclear chemistry and analytical chemistry, The Subcommittee has concerned itself with those areas of nuclear science which involve the chemist, such as the collec- tion and distribution of radiochemical procedures, the estab- lishment of specifications for radiochemically pure reagenks, availability of cyclotron time for service irradiations, the place of radiochemistry in the undergraduate college program, etc . This series of monographs has grown out of the need for up-to-date compilations of radiochemical information and pro- cedures. The Subcommittee has endeavored to present a series which will be of maximum use to the working scientist and which contains the latest available information. Each mono- .ma~h collects in one volume the wertinent information reauired ~or-radiocbemical work with an individual element or a grotip of closely related elements. .Anexpert in the radiochemistry of the particular element has written the monograph, following a standard format developed by the Subcommittee. The Atomic Energy Commission has sponsored the printing of the series. The Subcommittee is confident these publications will be useful.not only to the radiochemist but also to the research worker in other fields such as physics, biochemistry or medicine who wishes to use radiochemical techniques ‘Gosolve a specific problem. W. Wasme Meinke, Chairman Subcobittee on-Radiochemistry iii INTRODUCTION This volume which deals with the.,radlochemistry of gold 1s one of a series of monographs on radiochemlstry of the elements. There Is included a review of the nuclear and chemical features of particular interest to the radiochemist, a discussion of problems of dissolution of a sample and counting techniques, and finally, a collection of radlochemlcal procedures for the element as found In the literature. The series of monographs will cover all elements for which radiochemical procedures are pertinent. Plans Include revision of the monograph periodically as new techniques and procedures warrant. The reader Is therefore encouraged to call to the attention of the author any published or unpublished material on the radlochemistry of gold which might be Included In a revised version of the monograph. iv CONTENTS 3..

NESS OF ELECTRODEPOSITED GOLD COATINGS By W. Stanley Clabaugh ABSTRACT This paper presents a method for the determination of the thickness of gold electroplate, using a punch and die to obtain samples of known small area. Amounts of gold up to 10 micrograms (0.010 mg), corresponding to a thickness of 0.00050 mm (0.00002 in.) or less on 1 mm2 (0.00155 in.2) of surface, are determined directly by means of the color produced with o-tolidine. Results are reported for thicknesses of gold plate on experimentally plated samples and on commercially plated products. CONTENTS Page I.

The current work explored the influence of several experimental parameters such as pH, weak acid concentration, extractant concentration, equilibrium time, stripping agents, and aqueous:organic volume ratio on the extraction of Au(III). The experimental results showed that the Au(III) was quantitatively extracted to about 99.5% by 0.05 M 2-OAP in 0.05 M malonate at 5.0 pH. Ammonia solution was used to strip the gold-loaded organic phase and about 99.5% of Au(III) was reversibly extracted into the aqueous phase. + − Gold(III) was extracted into the organic phase via formation of ion-pair complex [2-OAPH .Au (C 3 H 2 O 4)2 ]. The stoichiometry of the extracted species was 1:2:1 (metal: acid: extractant) determined by slope analysis.

The course is foods. Students will develop an enhanced understanding of the chemical largely descriptive, though occasionally a few simple calculations will principles involved in food products and common cooking techniques. be done to illuminate specific information.
