Abstract

In the present paper, the electrochemical behavior and the properties of two modified glassy carbon (GC) electrodes used for quantification of gallic acid in sweet wines were compared. A comparative study was conducted between titanium nitride- or wolfram carbide-doped reduced graphene oxide, labeled as TNrGO and WCrGO, respectively, modified GC electrodes, which are promising composite nanomaterials for electroanalytical applications. For the first time, WCrGO was synthesized and its electroanalytical properties compared with those of TNrGO. Results showed that the proposed materials exhibited enhanced characteristics, e.g., low limits of detection (1.1 ?M and 3.1 ?M for TNrGO and WCrGO, respectively), wide linear ranges (for TNrGO 4.5-76 ?M and for WCrGO 10-100 ?M), low adsorption, and low background current, which make them promising candidates for electrochemical sensing applications.

The number of electrons in each of Titanium's shells is [2, 8, 10, 2] and its electron configuration is [Ar] 3d2 4s2. Titanium Bohr ModelThe titanium atom has a radius of 147 pm and a Van der Waals radius of 187 pm. Titanium was discovered by William Gregor in 1791 and first isolated by Jöns Jakob Berzelius in 1825. In its elemental form, titanium has a silvery grey-white metallic appearance. Titanium's properties are chemically and physically similar to zirconium, both of which have the same number of valence electrons and are in the same group in the periodic table. Elemental TitaniumTitanium has five naturally occurring isotopes: 46Ti through 50Ti, with 48Ti being the most abundant (73.8%). Titanium is found in igneous rocks and the sediments derived from them. It is named after the word Titanos, which is Greek for Titans.

Tungsten

The number of electrons in each of tungsten's shells is [2, 8, 18, 32, 12, 2] and its electron configuration is [Xe] 4f14 5d4 6s2. Tungsten Bohr ModelThe tungsten atom has a radius of 139 pm and a Van der Waals radius of 210 pm. Tungsten was discovered by Torbern Bergman in 1781 and first isolated by Juan José Elhuyar and Fausto Elhuyar in 1783. In its elemental form, tungsten has a grayish white, lustrous appearance. Elemental TungstenTungsten has the highest melting point of all the metallic elements and a density comparable to that or uranium or gold and about 1.7 times that of lead. Tungsten alloys are often used to make filaments and targets of x-ray tubes. It is found in the minerals scheelite (CaWO4) and wolframite [(Fe,Mn)WO4]. In reference to its density, Tungsten gets its name from the Swedish words tung and sten, meaning heavy stone.
