摘要

The cyclic voltammetry (CV) and the semidifferential anodic stripping voltanmetry (SdASV) were used for investigation of bismuth(Ⅲ) underpotential deposition (UPD) on gold electrode. Based on the excellent electrochemical properties of Au/Bi UPD system, a new method for determining bismuth (Ⅲ)was established. A solution of 0.1 mol/L HNO3 was selected as the supporting electrolyte. Factors affecting the Bi(Ⅲ) UPD and stripping steps were investigated and an opthmized analytical procedure was developed. The calibration plots for Bi(Ⅲ) concentration in the range 1.25 × 10-8-1.0 × 10-7 mol/L were obtained. The detection limit, calculated as three times the standard deviation of the analytical signal of 8.3×10-8 mol/L for a 90 s electrodeposition at 0.00 V (while the solution magnetically stirred at a speed of 300 rpm), was 7.5× 10-9 mol/ L. For8 successive determinations of 1.25 × 10-7 mol/L Bi(Ⅲ), the obtained RSD (relative standard deviation) was 0.4%. The developed method was applied to bismuth determining in medicine and urine samples. The analytical results were compared with that of atomic emission spectrometry (AES) method.
