Theory of Square Wave Voltammetry of Two Reversible Electrode Reactions Connected by The Reversible Chemical Reaction
Abstract
Milivoj Lovri
A theory of the mechanism that consists of two reversible electrode reactions coupled by kinetically controlled reversible chemical reaction is developed for square wave voltammetry on stationary planar electrode. The influences of frequency and the concentration of electro-inactive chemical reactant on the responses are investigated for thermodynamically stable intermediate. The limits of three types of responses are calculated and the formula for the estimation of the forward rate constant of chemical reaction is proposed.
