Abstract

Summary From fast galvanostatic and chronopotentiometric polarization measurements in both directions of the Zn(Hg)/Zn(II) electrode at 25°C in 1 M chloride solutions of pH 3, it is found that charge transfer occurs in two consecutive steps (Zn(Hg)/Zn(I)/Zn(II)), that both steps are essentially symmetric, and that they are little affected by double-layer changes (including chloride adsorption) within the potential region covered (−1.2 to −0.8 V (SCE)). For both steps, quantitative kinetic data are presented and discussed.
