The effect of storage on the distribution of trace elements (lead, cadmium, copper, mercury, and Zinc) has been studied. Relations between the percentage of metal ion present as adsorbed on container surface, as adsorbed on the suspended particles, and as free ions in solution and time of storage in glass bottles have been constructed for the five metals. A method for determining the distribution of trace elements between solution and the suspended particles in the undisturbed natural water in its source has been developed using experimental values of the distribution of these elements in a collected sample analyzed in the laboratory.
