Abstract
For adiabatic electrochemical reactions, within the framework of a model for an electrode with an infinitely wide conduction band, exact results are obtained for critical regions that correspond to different possible types of electron transfer processes (transfer of a single electron with and without an intermediate state, simultaneous transfer of two electrons) and regions that correspond to electroadsorption of the reactant in certain charge states. These regions form a diagram of kinetic modes (DKM) in the space of model parameters. Analytical expressions for outermost curves of DKM are obtained for some extreme cases. For the general case of a model for an electrode with an infinitely wide conduction band, a DKM is constructed and investigated with exact allowance for the effects of electron–electron correlations.
