Some atomic absorption characteristics of xylene solutions of eight organometallic compounds of nickel in air—acetylene and nitrous oxide—acetylene flames are described. Different absorbances from various nickel organometallic compounds were observed; these differences were not eliminated by using the nitrous oxide—acetylene flame. Serious errors may arise when different organometallic compounds are used for calibration in the determination of nickel in xylene solutions of various petroleum samples. These errors are much less pronounced when nickel is determined by a standard addition technique. The effects of different sample matrices are discussed.
