Abstract
INVESTIGATIONS of effects of adsorption on the mechanism of electrode processes, as encountered in corrosion inhibition, electrodeposition, etc., require determinations of the amounts adsorbed on an electrode in situ simultaneously with electrochemical measurements on the system. Previous work in this field has been ineffective because: (1) the adsorption has been determined on specimens different from those used in the electrochemical measurements; and (2) the amounts adsorbed have been determined subsequent to the removal of the specimen from the solution and washing of the surface, thus restricting the adsorbed amounts to those remaining under conditions undefined with respect to potential and the effect of washing.
