The use of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified by activated carbon (AC) mediates the redox of mercuric chloride (HgCl2) in 0.1 M aqueous solution of potassium chloride (KCl) supporting electrolyte. During cyclic voltammetry, an oxidation and two reduction peaks of Hg2+ were appearing at +200, +...
