This project was the spectrophotometric determination of the lithium concentration in Lithia water of Ashland Oregon. The complex matrix of Lithia water was analyzed using the complexing agent Thoron (or Thorin), which changes color. This color change was then measured spectrophotometrically with the UV-vis to determine a change in the lithium concentration in solution.
