โฆ Synopsis
Current transients have been measured for silver electrodes discontinuously scratched under potential control while immersed in 1 M KOH solutions. Formation of two distinct types of oxidised monolayer occurs in different potential ranges below the Ag-Ag,O reversible potential. Formation of the first monolayer of A&O is facilitated by an intermediate Ag(I) species at monolayer coverage, probably AgOH. The same phenomena are discernable in rapid potentiodynamic sweep and potentiostatic pulse

A silver electrode prepared by electrolytic deposition on a platinum wire was oxidized anodically in alkaline solution at constant cd. The impedance change and the potential change after opening the circuit in the course of anodic oxidation were observed and analysed. In the anodic oxidation, crysta
Current transients have been measured for silver electrodes held at a constant potential in solution and rapidly scratched in the presence of different chloride concentrations and pH. Two different types of oxldlsed monolayer are observed in different potential ranges, both below the Ag/AgCI reversi
AImract--Galvanostatic experiments have been made on iron electrodes in hydrogen-poor and hydrogen-saturated alkaline solutions at 20ยฐC. Emphasis was on the active behaviour of iron, but attention was also paid to its passivation. The mechanism of the anodic dissolution of active iron is found to b
Ag,O and AgO formed by potentiostatic oxidation of silver in O.lN KOH have been chemically analysed for the mean valency of silver ion. The anodic oxide formation proceeds in two stages and the silver ion in the oxide changes from Ag+ to Ag2+ at a transition potential. The reduction of AgO at consta
