Cathodic stripping reactions first order

Reaction (2.208) is a first-order cathodic stripping reaction with adsorption of the ligand [136], whereas reaction (2.210) is of second order [137]. Considering a mercurous salt formation, reaction (2.210) is written in the following form ... 

SWV has been applied to study electrode reactions of miscellaneous species capable to form insoluble salts with the mercury electrode such as iodide [141,142], dimethoate pesticide [143], sulphide [133,144], arsenic [145,146], cysteine [134, 147,148], glutathione [149], ferron (7-iodo-8-hydroxyquinolin-5-sulphonic acid) [150], 6-propyl-2-thiouracil (PTU) [136], 5-fluorouracil (FU) [151], 5-azauracil (AU) [138], 2-thiouracil (TU) [138], xanthine and xanthosine [152], and seleninm (IV) [153]. Verification of the theory has been performed by experiments at a mercury electrode with sulphide ions [133] and TU [138] for the simple first-order reaction, cystine [134] and AU [138] for the second-order reaction, FU for the first-order reaction with adsorption of the ligand [151], and PTU for the second-order reaction with adsorption of the ligand [137]. Figure 2.90 shows typical cathodic stripping voltammograms of TU and PTU on a mercuiy electrode. The order of the...
