During the cyclic voltammetry experiment, a triangular waveform is applied to the electrode. As the potential is swept more negatively, a wave is exhibited, during which time the analyte is reduced. The potential is reversed when the switching potential is reached. Once the potential is reversed, the wave exhibited is anodic and the analyte is oxidized. The working electrode is cathodic, the reference electrode is reduced, and the auxiliary electrode is oxidized.

Apositive potential is recorded when the copper electrode is the positive electrode: Is ule copper electrode the cathode or the anode of the cell? Explain: The measured reduction potentials are not equal to the calculated reduction potentials: Explain the reasons why the deviation from the calculated value might be observed:

Transient cyclic voltammetry is a very powerful technique to obtain the information about kinetics, thermodynamics and mass transport for an electrode reaction. A species Red undergoes a reversible one-electron transfer reaction to form Ox, Red ⇌ Ox + e- The reversible potential is a thermodynamic parameter, which may be determined using cyclic voltammetry. An oxidation peak potential of 1.120 V and a reduction peak potential of 1.063 V were obtained. Calculate the reversible potential (E0) for this process (in V).

An electrochemical cell is composed of a platinum indicator electrode and a silver-silver chloride (AglAgCl) reference electrode in a solution where the [Mn2+ V[Mn? +] = 0.0873. Calculate the cell potential if the Ag/AgCl reference electrode is replaced with & saturated calomel reference electrode (SCE) The standard reduction potential for the Mn? + MMn? hall- reaction is [,56 V.
