Complexation reactions of phthalic acid at the goethite-solution interface have been investigated in the absence and the presence of Al(III) in order to evaluate an equilibrium model applicable in chemical modelling. Phthalic acid was chosen as a model compound for natural organic substances. The study was performed as potentiometric titrations in 0.100 M NaNO 3 at 298.2 K using a glass electrode. Evaluation of experimental data was based on the constant-capacitance model ( K = 1.28 F m -2 ). Complexation of phthalic acid (H 2 L) at the surface of goethite is rather weak and results in the formation of mononuclear species, as described by the equilibria and intrinsic equilibrium constants (±3 ): FeOH + H 2 L FeLH + H 2 O ; log 0,1,0,1( int ) s = 6.68 (±0.05) and FeOH + H 2 L FeL - + H 2 O + H + ; log -1,1,0,1( int ) s = 0.35 (±0.06). In the presence of Al(III), the adsorption behavior of phthalic acid indicated formation of ternary surface complexes in the region 4 - log [ H + ] 7. Additional complexes occurring in the four-component system are described by the equilibria and intrinsic equilibrium constants: FeOH + Al 3+ + H 2 L FeOAlL + 3 H + ; log -3,1,1,1( int ) s = -2.7 (±0.29) and FeOH + Al 3+ + H 2 L + H 2 O FeOAl ( OH ) L - + 4 H + ; log -4,1,1,1( int ) s = -8.3 (±0.16).
