Abstract
The effect the difference in zero energies and entropies of isotopic forms of reagents has on the difference in free energies of the elementary act of discharge of a hydronium ion for an initial equilibrium configuration of a reaction complex and equilibrium (ground) energy levels is considered. The analysis is performed for conditions of constancy of potential and constancy of overvoltage: only in the latter case one does not have to resort to extrathermodynamic assumptions. It is shown that differences in entropies of isotopic forms play a substantial role
