description Given the importance from the point of view of environmental pollution, which have inhalable particles PM10 in urban environments, and the effects that may arise health depend on the chemical composition of the material consists of particles, this study was conducted with the aim of revealing the chemical composition of atmospheric particles through techniques UV-VIS spectrophotometry and Mass Spectrometry Coupled Plasma source, generated mainly by natural and anthropogenic sources in the city of Riohacha north of Colombia; for that 30 samples of atmospheric particles they were collected by quartz filters on a monthly basis during the period from March to December 2014. PM10 have an average concentration of 52.9 µg / m3 and the highest concentration of soluble ions correspond to Na+ , Cl- , Ca+ 2 and Mg+ 2. The differences between sampling sites were not significant (p > 0.6). 70% of Ca + 2 is not of marine origin, attributed to soil and vehicular traffic and people. Knowing the chemical composition of particulate matter, PM10 is relevant not only from the point of view of atmospheric chemistry, but also on the quality of the air we breathe in cities.

Teniendo en cuenta la importancia desde el punto de vista de la contaminación ambiental, que tienen las partículas inhalables PM 10 en ambientes urbanos, y que los efectos que se puedan generar en la salud dependen de la composición química del material formado por partículas, se realizó este estudio con el objetivo de revelar la composición química de las partículas atmosféricas a través de técnicas de Espectrofotometría UV-VIS y Espectrometría de Masas con fuente de Plasma de Acoplamiento, generados principalmente por fuentes naturales y antrópicas en la ciudad de Riohacha al norte de Colombia; para ello se recolectaron 30 muestras de partículas atmosféricas por medio de filtros de cuarzo con una frecuencia mensual, durante el período de marzo a diciembre de 2014. Las PM 10 presentan una concentración promedio de 52,9 µg/m 3 y los iones solubles de mayor concentración corresponden a Na + , Cl - , Ca +2 y Mg +2 . Las diferencias entre los sitios de muestreo no fueron significativas (p> 0,6). El 70% del Ca +2 es de origen no marino, atribuyéndose al suelo y al tráfico vehicular y peatonal. Conocer la composición química del material particulado, PM 10 tiene relevancia no sólo desde el punto de vista de la química de la atmósfera, sino también sobre la calidad del aire que se respira en las ciudades.
