Abstract
A colorimetric method for determination of phenols in water has been developed. The method, which is a modification of Liebermann's reaction, uses resorcinol as a chromogenic agent. The developed method is more sensitive, and the difficulties encountered in the widely used 4-aminoantipyrine method have been avoided. Application of both the proposed and 4-aminoantipyrine methods to the analysis of natural and tap water samples are presented.Keywords
