36. The amount of metal ion adsorbed per unit mass of adsorbent q t (mg/g) at each time t , by adsorbents was calculated from the mass balance expression: and the percentage removal of metal ions was obtained using: Removal (%) V = volume of metal ion solution (mL) C 0 = initial concentration of the metal ion solution (mg/L) C t = liquid-phase concentrations of the metal ion solution at any time t (mg/L) m = amount of adsorbent used (g) Adsorption Calculation
37. The net surface charge density, S o , was calculated using the equation above. S o = surface charge (C cm −2 ) n = numbers of moles of ions F = Faraday constant. Г H + and Г OH - = adsorbed amounts of H + and OH − ions (mol cm −2 ) during the titration process In this manner, the dependence of the surface charge density on pH and the electrolyte concentration were obtained.

42. Mineral surface properties Surface charge of an oxide mineral surface in aqueous systems will change with changing pH as a function of the PZC of that mineral. Surface charge creates a surface condition in which there is an uneven charge distribution. The consumption and release of protons during an acid/base titration can be due to: – proton adsorption/desorption on the edge sites (i.e.aluminols and silanols) – exchange reactions on basal planes to compensate the negative structural charge – hydrolysis of aqueous cations released during mineral dissolution.

Editor's Notes
In the right concentrations, many metals are essential to life. In excess, these same chemicals can be poisonous. Similarly, chronic low exposures to heavy metals can have serious health effects in the long run. The main threats to human well-being are associated with lead, arsenic, cadmium and mercury, and it is these substances that are targeted by international legislative bodies.
Transition metal is "an element whose atom has an incomplete d sub-shell, or which can give rise to cations with an incomplete d sub-shell." An ion is an atom or molecule which has lost or gained one or more valence electrons , giving it a positive or negative electrical charge. A negatively charged ion , which has more electrons in its electron shells than it has protons in its nuclei , and is known as an anion A positively-charged ion , which has fewer electrons than protons, is known as a cation Metallic bonding is the electrostatic attraction between delocalized electrons , and the metallic nuclei within metals . It involves the sharing of free electrons among a lattice of positively-charged metal ions. Chelation therapy is a series of intravenous infusions containing EDTA and various other substances. EDTA is a polyamino carboxylic acid The first widely used chelating agent, the organic dithiol compound dimercaprol (also named British Anti-Lewisite or BAL), was used as an antidote to the arsenic-based poison gas,
Distill water – for proton adsorption Charge determination (KCl solution) Initial pH values (pH i ) of 20 mL of KCl solutions (concentrations 10 −3 and 10 −2 M) were adjusted in pH range of 3.1–10 using 0.01 M of HCl or NaOH. Then, 0.05 g of MMT was added to each sample. Equilibration was carried out by shaking, in a rotary incubator at 200 rpm for 2 h at 25±1 ◦ C. The dispersions were then filtered and the final pH of the solutions (pH f ) was determined, point of zero charge was found from a plot of pH f vs. pH i . Each addition of 0.05 g of dry MMT sample were added to 30mL of KCl solution at a given ionic strength, I = 0.01M, having a pH between 2.4 and 5.1. After each addition, the pH was recorded after an equilibrium time. It was verified that the pH reached a constant value for exactly 10min after each addition of the mineral. Then, a new amount of sample was introduced to change the pH; this procedure was repeated until a pH was found where no pH change occurs with further addition of the sample. For a clay or oxide free of contamination (Zalac and Kallay, 1992), this pH value has been shown to be a good approximation to the PZNC of oxide or clay surfaces.

CEC : The pH 7.0 ammonium acetate procedure of Chapman (1965) is recommended. NH 4 + saturation: the soil is saturated with NH 4 +, then the NH 4 + is replaced by Ca++, and lastly the NH 4 + removed is measured to determine the number of exchange sites that were occupied by ammonium. To estimate the actual CEC (at the pH of the soil), the sum of cations extracted by a routine Soil test (CECe) should suffice. For a very precise measure of CEC, the BaCl 2 -compulsive exchange procedure is suggested (Gillman, 1979, Gillman and Sumpter, 1986; Rhoades, 1982). EGME : placed in vacuum desicator containing diphosphorus pentaoxide for 4hrs to remove moisture from the surface. Dried adsorbent is weighed. Excess amt of ethlene glycol monoethyl ether (EGME) was applied to wet adsorbent surface. And then placed in a vacuum again containing calcium chloride. Weight of EGME remaining as a function of time was ploted. Equilibrium weight of EGME for monolayer coverage was obtained.
With Mg 2+ substituting for Al 3+ there are fewer positive charges to neutralize the negative charges and a large permanent (negative) charge results (it is called permanent charge since it takes place during crystallization and it is not a subject to changes). In contrast, there are also variable or pH-dependent charges that are formed by protonation and deprotonation of functional groups like -OH.
" charge density " defined as: the number of charges on the cation divided by it’s surface area
