Intermetallic Compounds in Mercury is Volume 51 of the Solubility Data Series. It follows Volume 25, Metals in Mercury, of the same series. Evaluations of more than fifty systems are presented together with all of the data and citations from the original literature. In addition, over 200 references are given to related literature that describes metal interactions in amalgams but from which quantitative information can only be inferred. For each compound reported, a critical evaluation presents recommended or tentative values of solubilities or solubility products based on statistical treatment of the data reported. Mercury provides a unique solvent for metal-metal reactions, and thus the data reported here are a valuable addition to the experimental basis for better fundamental understanding of interactions of metals in the elemental state. In addition, this material is important technologically in the areas of metal processing, materials, and electrochemistry.

Third Edition covers the latest advances in methodologies, sensors, detectors, and mIcrochips The greatly expanded Third Edition of this internationally respected text continues to provide readers with a complete panorama of electroanalytical techniques and devices, offering a balancebetween voltammetric and potentiometric techniques. Emphasizing electroanalysis rather than physical electrochemistry, readers gain a deep understanding of the fundamentals of electrodereactions and electrochemical methods. Moreover, readers learn to apply their newfoundknowledge and skills to solve real-world analytical problems. The text consists of six expertly crafted chapters: * Chapter 1 introduces fundamental aspects of electrode reactions and the structure of the interfacial region * Chapter 2 studies electrode reactions and high-resolution surface characterization, using techniques ranging from cyclic voltammetry to scanning probe microscopies * Chapter 3 features an overview of modern finite-current controlled potential techniques * Chapter 4 presents electrochemical instrumentation and electrode materials, including modified electrodes and ultramicroelectrodes * Chapter 5 details the principles of potentiometric measurements and various classes of ion selective electrodes * Chapter 6 explores the growing field of chemical sensors, including biosensors, gas sensors, microchip devices, and sensor arrays Among the new topics covered, readers discover DNA biosensors, impedance spectroscopy, detection of capillary electrophoresis, diamond electrodes, carbon-nanotube and nanoparticle-based arrays and devices, large-amplitude AC voltammetry, solid-state ion-selective electrodes, ion selective electrodes for trace analysis, and lab-on-a-chip devices. New figures, worked examples, and end-of-chapter questions have also been added to this edition. Given the rapid pace of discovery and growth of new applications in the field, this text is essential for an up-to-date presentation of the latest advances in methodologies, sensors, detectors, and microchips. It is recommended for graduate-level courses in electroanalytical chemistry and as a supplement for upper-level undergraduate courses in instrumental analysis. The text also meets the reference needs for any industry, government, or academic laboratory engaged in electroanalysis and biosensors.

Scandium provides a comprehensive review of all aspects of scandium, including its occurrence in nature; its chemical, physical and technological properties; its biological significance and toxic effects; and its applications. The book covers the discovery and history of scandium, its abundance in rock-forming minerals and common type rocks, and its derivation, extraction, and preparation. It also deals with the physical metallurgy of scandium, its physical and chemical properties, its isotopes, its alloys and intermetallic compounds, and its economic and technological applications. The text is recommended for chemists, metallurgists, and experts who would like to know particularly more about scandium and its possible uses.
