Abstract
The applicability of triangular silver nanoplates (TNPs) as a spectrophotometric reagent for the determination of mercury(II) in an aqueous solution was estimated. The method is based on the oxidation of TNPs with a mean edge length of 52 nm and thickness of 4 nm by mercury(II) ions, which is accompanied by a decrease in the surface plasmon resonance of nanoparticles. The effect of reaction time, pH of solution, and TNP concentration on the sensitivity of mercury(II) determination was studied. The limit of mercury(II) detection under the selected conditions was 0.022 μg/mL.
