Kinetics of Electron Transfer at Electrodes

Structure and Reactivity. Kinetics of Electron Transfer at Electrodes Half-wave Potentials as Reactivity Indices Role of Electrochemical Parameters in Physical Organic... 

The kinetics of electron transfers at electrodes are usually studied in terms of the cnr-rent intensity as a function of the potential. When i = 0, the potential of the electrode is that of equilibrium, E. The application of a potential different from E corresponds a polarisation of the electrode, whose magnitude is called the overpotential, fj.
