Abstract
If uncompensated resistance is ignored, the standard rate constant, k s and the transfer coefficient α, as determined by the usual potential-step method, will both be too small. The error may not be large, however, provided that k s < 2 · 10 −2 cm sec −1 and that the experiment is designed to minimize the uncompensated resistance effects. A method is described by which α and K s may be determined in the presence of uncompensated resistance; the method may be used for K s magnitudes as large as 0.15 cm sec −1.
