Download or read book Adsorption of Organic Compounds on Electrodes written by Boris Damaskin and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-02-20 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The systematic study of the adsorption of organic compounds on electrodes began with the comprehensive survey of adsorption on mercury carried out by Gouy in the first decade of this century. His studies with the capillary electrometer are still useful but do not lend themselves to detailed quantitative analysis. A more de tailed study of a few systems by Frumkin in his thesis (1919) led him to propose a quantitative phenomenological theory of organic adsorption (1925, 1926) at almost the same time as Stern proposed the model of the electrical double layer which remains the picture accepted in general terms today. The attempt at a molecular model made by Butler (1929) should be more satisfying but up to the pres ent the formidable difficulties of a molecular theory of interfacial phenomena have prevented the full interpretation of experimental results along these lines. In his work with Proskurnin (1935), Frumkin is also respon sible for the major experimental advance in the demonstration that reliable measurements of the capacity of an electrode-solution interface can be obtained provided that the work is carried out under conditions of scrupulous cleanliness. Even so, preCise mea surements of double layer capacities were not obtained until Grahame (1941) showed how convenient and reliable the dropping mercury electrode was the for these studies. This method and the hanging drop electrode remain the preferred methods for study of adsorp tion on mercury. Solid electrodes present a more difficult problem.

Book Comments on the Paper Entitled In Situ Studies of Adsorption of Organic Compounds on Platinum Electrodes  by J  O M  Bockris and K T  Jeng

Download or read book Comments on the Paper Entitled In Situ Studies of Adsorption of Organic Compounds on Platinum Electrodes by J O M Bockris and K T Jeng written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper (1) describes results of experimental and theoretical studies of adsorption of several organic compounds on polycrystalline platinum by the use of radiotracer, ellipsometry and FT-IR techniques. The present comments concern the papers assumptions, research strategy, and methodology. Specific points that will be made below are: (1) since adsorption reversibility was not documented, the application of isotherms for adsorption characterization was not justified; (2) the difference in the roughness factor did not make for a fair comparison of adsorption measurements by various methods employed; (3) in consequence of the choice of hydrochloric acid as the supporting electrolyte, chloride-adsorbate substitution rather than the postulated water-adsorbate exchange, was predominantly observed; (4) adsorption of water and the value of the pzc of platinum affect the testing of testing of the organic adsorbates in a way different from that implied in the discussed work.

Book Electrochemical and Spectroscopic Interfacial Investigations of Small Organic Molecule Electrooxidation on Platinum Electrodes

Download or read book Electrochemical and Spectroscopic Interfacial Investigations of Small Organic Molecule Electrooxidation on Platinum Electrodes written by Rachel L. Behrens and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In support of the recent interest in fuels from renewable resources for fuel cells, the intermediates of the oxidation of formic acid and ethanol to CO2 on platinum electrodes have been examined. The adsorbed carbon monoxide intermediate continues to be the cause for a decrease in efficiency and activity for platinum electrodes and is the leading surface poison (intermediate) in the most common oxidation reactions. We have studied the CO species generated from both fuel and CO-saturated media to observe site conversion of the CO species on polycrystalline platinum and platinum single crystal surfaces with respect to concentration, composition of electrolyte, and potential with electrochemical techniques and broad-band sum frequency generation spectroscopy (BB-SFG). In situ BB-SFG allows for the chemical analysis of electrode surfaces to examine details of surface electrochemical reactions. SFG is based on a second order nonlinear optical process that is forbidden in centrosymmetric media. Therefore, SFG is intrinsically interface-sensitive and enables surface chemical measurements without contribution from the bulk. With the aid of a femtosecond IR laser, we probe vibrational transitions of adsorbates in real time on the electrode surface as the potential at the surface is scanned at rates up to 5 mV/s. Studies of CO species, other reaction intermediates, and adsorbates will be discussed in relation to their poisoning of catalysis by single crystal Pt electrodes. These experiments demonstrate the sensitivity of the BB-SFG technique to the adsorbed species, and its capability to examine adsorption site conversions of the species on the electrode surface. In formic acid fuel solution, in situ BB-SFG was used to obtain vibrational spectra of CO adsorbates produced from formic acid oxidation on a Pt(100) electrode in sulfuric acid and perchloric acid media. The BB-SFG simultaneously monitored all forms of the CO intermediates, including steady-state, as the potential was scanned at 5 mV/s. Spectra were compared to those obtained from CO adsorbed from a CO-saturated electrolyte. While adsorbed from HCOOH, CO had a sharp atop transition near 2050 cm-1 and a broader multiply-bonded transitions in the 1700-1900 cm-1 range, which appear to result from bridge-like and higher-coordinated (possibly fourfold) CO. As the potential was scanned from -0.2 to 0.3 V (vs. Ag/AgCl), the bridge-like CO disappeared and the amount of atop CO increased. At potentials above 0.5 V, CO was in steady-state, being oxidized on the surface to CO2 and replenished by CO from HCOOH. These measurements show that BB-SFG can observe potential-dependent interconversion of different CO forms on the electrode surface and can measure steady-state reaction intermediates on a surface in real time. In situ BB-SFG was also employed to study ethanol on platinum electrodes as a means to elucidate the mechanism of this reaction on catalyst surfaces for fuel cell applications. Recently, the interest in ethanol has increased, not only as a renewable resource, but especially as a fuel source due to its high theoretical yield of 12 electrons released upon complete oxidation. Incomplete oxidation, a major setback with ethanol oxidation, forms byproducts and intermediates slowing the oxidation reaction or prohibiting it from occurring further. Among the byproducts are acetic acid and acetaldehyde, where the C-C bond is not yet broken, or the intermediate CO, where the C-C bond has been broken and is further oxidized to CO2. Using simultaneous electrochemical techniques and broad-band sum frequency generation, these byproducts and intermediates formed on platinum electrodes will be discussed in both acidic and basic media, as a function of electrolyte composition and ethanol concentration.

Book The Mechanism of Oxidation of Low Molecular Weight Organic Compounds at Platinum Electrodes in Aqueous Solutions

Download or read book The Mechanism of Oxidation of Low Molecular Weight Organic Compounds at Platinum Electrodes in Aqueous Solutions written by THOMAS C. FRANKLIN and published by . This book was released on 1962 with total page 1 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electrode processes for the oxidation of some low molecular w ight organic compounds at platinum electrodes in 2N sulfuric acid and 2N sodium hydroxide solutions were studied. Cyclic voltammetry, chronopot iometry, potential decay, and controlled potential oxidation were used. A new method for studying the kinetic order of electrode reactions was used. At low organic-compound concentrations, the rate of electrolytic oxidation of the organic compound is first order with respect to the concentration of the organic compound and first order with respect to the surface area of the electrode; at higher concentrations, an equilibrium reaction is observed. It w s concluded that his equilibrium reaction is adsorption of the organic molecules on the platinum electrode and that adsorption is the ratedetermining step of the oxidation reaction. (Author).

Book Classical And Quantum Dynamics In Condensed Phase Simulations  Proceedings Of The International School Of Physics

Download or read book Classical And Quantum Dynamics In Condensed Phase Simulations Proceedings Of The International School Of Physics written by Bruce J Berne and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1998-06-17 with total page 881 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The school held at Villa Marigola, Lerici, Italy, in July 1997 was very much an educational experiment aimed not just at teaching a new generation of students the latest developments in computer simulation methods and theory, but also at bringing together researchers from the condensed matter computer simulation community, the biophysical chemistry community and the quantum dynamics community to confront the shared problem: the development of methods to treat the dynamics of quantum condensed phase systems.This volume collects the lectures delivered there. Due to the focus of the school, the contributions divide along natural lines into two broad groups: (1) the most sophisticated forms of the art of computer simulation, including biased phase space sampling schemes, methods which address the multiplicity of time scales in condensed phase problems, and static equilibrium methods for treating quantum systems; (2) the contributions on quantum dynamics, including methods for mixing quantum and classical dynamics in condensed phase simulations and methods capable of treating all degrees of freedom quantum-mechanically.
