Abstract
AbstractThe standard potentials of the redox electrodes “dissolved atomic mercury/dissolved mercury ions” are calculated to be E0(Hg0/Hg2+) = 0.661 V (vs. SHE and E0/Hg0 Hg) = 0.410V (vs. SHE). The standard potential of the electrode “metallic mercury/dissolved mercury ions” E0(Hg/Hg2+) = 0.8535V (vs. SHE) is the formal potential of the electrode “dissolved atomic mercury/dissolved mercury ions” at saturation activity of atomic mercury. In all calculations involving dissolved atomic mercury below saturation activity, the standard potentials E0(Hg0/Hg2+) and E0(Hg0/Hg22+) have to be used or the relation between them and E0(Hg/Hg2+) and E0(Hg/Hg) has to be taken into account.
