Abstract
The dependence of the standard exchange current density of the hydrogen evolution reaction on electrode surfaces has been investigated using the work function of metals, free energy of bond formation with adsorbed hydrogen atoms, surface potential of the reactant, and adsorption characteristics of solvent dipoles. The explicit influence of the parameters is derived using a postulated transition state and a satisfactory agreement with experimental data is noticed for a large number of sp and d metals.
