Abstract
The limiting cathodic current of copper deposition at a flat vertical electrode from solutions containing a mixture of copper sulfate and sulfuric acid (in excess) in conditions of natural convection is calculated. The possibility of the two-step dissociation of sulfuric acid is accounted for. The obtained formulas yield the limiting cathodic current at any ratio of bisulfate and sulfate anions in solution.
