Abstract
A model crystalline approximant of the surface layer (SL) structure of liquid mercury is formed using the algorithm, previously applied to form a crystalline approximant of the SL structure of water, the experimental data on the SL structure of mercury, and the stereochemical data for Hg atoms in the α-Hg crystalline phase and bulk liquid mercury. The correspondence of the metrics of the crystalline approximant proposed for the SL structure of mercury and Langmuir monolayers composed of organic molecules with hydrocarbon tails and different hydrophilic groups on liquid mercury to the position of molecules along mercury SL is shown.
