Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Scan rate at experiment 2 should be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The peak current can be represented as follows:

ip=2.686×105 n3/2 A c D1/2 v1/2

Here,

Ip = peak current

n = number of electrons transferred in the redox event

A = electrode surface area

C = concentration

D = diffusion coefficient

V = scan rate

How long will it take to dissolve 2 mg of metal A (atomic weight 100) in a solution containing A2+ from a metal electrode with area of 1.5 cm2 at an overpotential of = 0.2 V? The exchange current density (j0) for A is 3x10-3 A/cm2, the temperature T=298 K and the symmetry factor =0.4.

6) Voltammetry - In linear scan voltammetry, the diffusion current is proportional to the concentration of the species being reduced. In one experiment 250.00 mL of a 6.00 x 104 M Cd2+ (aq) solution was analyzed using a mercury electrode. The voltammetry scan from -0.6 to -1.2 V took 3.40 minutes to complete. The diffusion current for the reduction of Cd2+ at the mercury electrode was 14.0 μA (14.0 x 106 A). Cd²+ (aq) + 2 e --- -> Cd (s) a) How many mmol Cd2+ were initially present? (in the 250.00 mL solution) b) Using the current and time, calculate the charge (coulombs) delivered to the solution. c) How many mmol of Cd²+ were reduced (deposited) during the analysis by this current? d) Using the answers from parts (a) and (c), calculate the percentage of Cd²+ that was reduced in the analysis. e) A second solution of unknown Cd2+ concentration was analyzed similarly and the diffusion current was only 10.2 µA. What is the Cd2+ for the unknown solution? (Use current is proportional to…
