Adsorption of ClO 4−, NO 2− and NO 3− on the (0001) face of a cadmium single crystal

Abstract

The capacitance-potential dependence of an electrolytically grown (0001) face of cadmium in dilute solutions of ClO 4 −, NO 2 − and NO 3 − is studied. A weak specific adsorption increasing in the order ClO 4 − < NO 2 − < NO 3 − is observed. An influence of the electrode on the electroreduction of NO 2 − and NO 3 − is also found.
