Abstract
The results of potentiometric studies in molten lithium chloride-potassium chloride eutectic are reported. The potentials of gold and platinum electrodes were found to respond to variations in the oxide-ion concentration of the melt and to changes in the partial pressure of oxygen above the melt. These changes in potential did not obey the Nernst Equation for a reversible oxygen electrode. It is suggested that the potential-determining reaction is: 2O2−+2e=O22−
