Abstract

MERCURY electrodes used in electrochemistry are often prepared by plating mercury on solid electrodes. The formation of amalgams in these conditions has been in general disregarded. We have already shown1 that when gold or gold-plated electrodes are covered with mercury, there are electrode reactions different from those on pure mercury, owing to formation of intermetallic compounds.
