The state of bismuth in Cheleken water has been studied by thermodynamic calculations, paper electrophoresis, and a distribution method. The radioactive tracers used were /sup 207/Bi and /sup 212/Pb. It has been shown that regardless of the form of bismuth introduced into the water, the system of complexes, among which the principal species are BiA/sub 4//sup -/ and Na/sub 2/BiA/sub 6//sup -/, where A denotes a halide ion, is inert. The use of thin-layer copper(II) sulfide and x-ray fluorescence analysis made it possible to evaluate the concentration of bismuth in Cheleken water (n x 10/sup -8/ to n x 10/sup -9/ M).
