Abstract

The kinetics of the Zn(II)-Zn(Hg) electrode process was studied in water ethanol NaClO4 mixtures. Diffusion coefficients, formal potential and charge transfer rate constants were determined. The results are interpreted taking into account the change of the activation energy of the process.
