    Abstract:
    A new method is described for the determination of Ni based on the cathodic adsorptive stripping of Ni(II) complexed with hydroxynaphthol blue (HNB) at a static mercury drop electrode. Optimal conditions were found to be: accumulation potential -0.50 V (vs. Ag/AgCl); final potential -1.10 V; accumulation time 50 sec; scan rate 200 mV/sec; linear scan mode; filter 0.1 sec; supporting electrolyte acetic acid/acetate (0.25M, pH = 6.0) and concentration of HNB 3.3 x 10(-5)M. The response of the system was found to be linear in a range of Ni concentrations from 25 ppb to the detection limit. The detection limit was found to be 1.7 nM (0.10 ppb) with 2 mins of accumulation time. The effect of various potential interferences (including a variety of cations, anions and organic surfactants) were also studied. With the exception of Co, at less than equimolar concentrations no significant interferences were observed. Al was found to interfere at high concentrations with respect to Ni, but Al concentrations up to 1000 ppb may be masked by sodium citrate or sodium fluoride. The utility of the method is demonstrated by the recovery of Ni in a doped sample of commercial mineral water.
