Abstract

The theory of linear-sweep voltammetry (LSV) applied to heterogeneous redox reactions accompanied by the nondissociative adsorption of the reactant or the product is developed. The basic criterial relationships of LSV in this case are invariant with respect to the type of adsorption isotherm and the number of adsorption sites occupied by one species. The degree of irreversibility of the discharge-ionization step can be evaluated from the effect of the potential scan rate on the peak potential. The nature of the adsorbate can be deduced from the effect of the reactant concentrations on the peak current.
