Questions and Answers

What is the equation for the equilibrium deposition potential?

  • $e_{eqm} = e_o - ln C Z F$
  • $e_{eqm} = e_o imes ln C Z F$
  • $e_{eqm} = e_o imes rac{ln C}{Z F}$
  • $e_{eqm} = e_o + rac{ln C}{Z F}$ (correct)

What extra voltage should be added in cases where the equilibrium deposition potential is not sufficient to start the reaction?

  • $e_{act} = e_{eqm} - \eta_{a}$
  • $e_{act} = e_{eqm} \times \eta_{a}$
  • $e_{act} = e_{eqm} + \eta_{a}$ (correct)
  • $e_{act} = e_{eqm} \div \eta_{a}$

What reaction step results in activation polarization?

  • $M+2 - 2e \rightarrow M^2$
  • $M+2 + 2e \rightarrow M^2$
  • $M+2 + 2e \rightarrow M$ (correct)
  • $M+2 - 2e \rightarrow M$
