In this paper, we report a synthesis of a new lacunar apatite, KCdPb3(PO4)(3), using solid state method, and its application as modifier of carbon paste electrode (KLA-CPE) to determine mercury (II). Sodium replacement with potassium induced a linear variation of the crystallographic parameters a and c according to Vegard's law and led to amplify the electrical signal of the working electrode. The peak currents of mercury (II) increased linearly with their concentration at the range from 2.0 x 10(-7) mol L-1 to 1.0 x 10(-4) mol L-1 using differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry. The detection limit was found to be 1.11 x 10(-8) mol L-1. The use of this electrochemical sensor has been successfully implemented for the determination of Hg (II) in seawater and fish samples. The obtained results were found to be very satisfactory. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
