A method for the determination of nickel(II) by stripping voltammetry is described. The method is based on the adsorptive
accumulation of nickel(II) calconcarboxylic acid complex onto a hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE), followed by the
reduction of the adsorbed complex using differential pulse voltammetry. The optimum operating conditions and parameters were
found to be 0.05 M NH3/NH4Cl buffer (pH = 9.5) as the supporting electrolyte, a ligand concentration of 1 × 10-6 M, accumulation
potential of -0.5 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) and accumulation time of 60 s. At the optimized conditions, the peak current is proportional to
the concentration of nickel in the range of 1.7 × 10-9 to 4.7 × 10-7 M (0.1-28 ng ml-1) with a detection limit of 0.05 ng ml-1. The
relative standard deviation (n = 10) at nickel concentrations of 2, 10 and 15 ng ml-1 varies in the range 0.76 to 2.1%. Possible
interferences by metal ions, which are of great significance in real matrices, have been studied. The method was successfully
applied to the determination of nickel content in a chocolate sample.
