ELECTRODE KINETICS WITH ADSORBED FOREIGN NEUTRAL SUBSTANCE,
Abstract
The kinetics of discharge of Zn(II) on a hanging Zn(Hg) drop was studied by the galvanostatic method in perchlorate medium with-out and with n-amyl alcohol. The Frumkin correction for the double layer structure was verified in the absence of n-amyl alcohol for Mg(C104)2 and Ba(C104)2, but departure was considerable for NaC104 and A1(C104)3. This discrepancy is tentatively explained. An explanation is offered, and the significance of coverage, as computed from thermodynamic surface excesses, is discussed. The transfer coefficient was not affected by the presence of n-amyl alcohol. It is concluded that the plane of closest approach for zinc ion is not affected by the presence of n-amyl alcohol.
