Acoustic cavitation generates molecular mercury(ii) hydroxide, Hg(OH)(2), from biphasic water/mercury mixtures

Emulsification of elemental mercury in aqueous solution in the form of grey particles occurs upon exposure to intense sound fields. We show the concomitant formation of molecular Hg(OH)(2) in the solution phase reaching a saturation limit of 0.24 mM at 25 °C. The formation of Hg(OH)(2) is consistent...
