In the present work we have carried out a Monte Carlo simulation of a dissociative electron transfer reaction in a polar solvent. In particular, we have chosen as a very simple model the electrochemical reduction of hydrogen fluoride to give a hydrogen atom and a fluoride anion in a dipolar solvent.
In this paper, experimental and simulation results corresponding to studies of electron transfer processes in solvent mixtures are presented. The methodology is presented to obtain the relevant parameters controlling the elementary electron transfer step, namely, the reorganization free energy, u, a
