Summary
-
1.
By the method of latent limiting currents based on the hydrogen ion it was shown that hydrogen ions do not take part in the electrochemical reduction of diiodoacetylene at the dropping-mercury cathode.
-
2.
The diiodoacetylene wave corresponds to two-electron reduction with cleavage of both iodine atoms.
