2、changes with sweeping voltage?Reason: Voltage is a driving force to an electrode reactions, it is concerned with the equilibrium of electron transfer at electrode surface.As the altering of lied voltage, the Fermi-level is raised (or lowered), which changing the energy state of the electrons.Making

3、the overall barrier height (ie activation energy) alter as a function of the lied voltage.(1).In this reaction, when voltage is 0.6V, there is no electron transfer, so the current is zero.With the voltage to the more reductive values, the current increases.(2).When the diffusion layer has grown suff

4、iciently above the electrode so that the flu_ of reactant to the electrode is not fast enough to satisfy that required by Nernst Equation.The peak is obtaining.(3).When the reaction continued, it would get a situation that there will be a lower reactant concentration at the electrode than in bulk so

5、lution, that is, the supply of fresh reactant to the surface decreased, so current decreases.Plot the curves of CV curves with different scan rate;From the CV curves, fill the tableScan rate (mV/s)205010020_300400500600Peak current(uA)Ipc8.33613.1718.5025.9631.5436.1740.2343.95Ipa-8.263-13.01-18.19-

7、 peak current and peak voltage difference change with scan rate?Answer: From above data and curve, we can obtain:At a fi_ed scan rate : (1).from initial positive voltage to more reductive values, the current begin to flow, then reach a peak ipc and decrease eventually.(2).when voltage moves back, th

8、e equilibrium positions gradually converting electrolysis product (Fe2+) back to reactant (Fe3+), the current flow is from the solution species back to the electrode and so occurs in the opposite sense to the forward.The process has another current peak ipa.It has same reason of linear sweep voltamm

9、etry.At different scan rate, the ratio of peak current ipc/ipa is about equal to 1 (1.0091.043).At different scan rate, the position of peak voltage do not alter greatly Ep is about a constant (66-79).(mV/s)205010020_3004005006001/2 (mV/s) 1/24.4727.0711014.14217.3212022.36124.495Ip (uA)8.33613.1718

11、e rationalised by considering the size of the diffusion layer and the time taken to record the scan.Clearly the linear sweep voltammogram will take longer to record as the scan rate is decreased.Therefore the size of the diffusion layer above the electrode surface will be different depending upon th

12、e voltage scan rate used.In a slow voltage scan the diffusion layer will grow much further from the electrode in parison to a fast scan.Consequently the flu_ to the electrode surface is considerably smaller at slow scan rates than it is at faster rates.As the current is proportional to the flu_ towa

13、rds the electrode, the magnitude of the current will be lower at slow scan rates and higher at high rates.(2) Ep-VFigure 2: Peak potential VS scan rate(3) Ep-vFigure 3: the change of Peak potential VS scan rateInterpretation: Figure 2: shows that the position of the peak current occurs at the same voltage.Figure 3: shows the Peak voltage difference is constant in different scan rate.Reason: The characteristic of this electrode reaction has rapid electron transfer kiics and there is no charge transfer in double layer, so this reaction is reversible.第 7 页 共 7 页
