Voltammetric Determination of Manganese on Organo – Modified Electrodes

Abstract The researches on the choice of aryldiazonium tosylate salts as a modifier to create an organo-modified electrode were carried out. It is shown that the best organic modifier for surface modification of a mercury-graphite electrode is aryldiazonium tosylate without a substituent. A method for producing an organo-modified electrode and the procedure for measuring the analytical signal of manganese by voltammetry was developed. The method is simple to implement and allows avoiding the use of metal mercury for forming the electrode, and making measurements without aerating of electrolyte by inert gases (nitrogen, argon) with an error (Sr) of not more than 10%.
