Abstract:Applying an external potential difference between two electrodes leads to a voltage drop in an ion conducting electrolyte. This drop is particularly large in poorly conducting electrolytes and for high currents. Measuring the electrolyte potential is relevant in electrochemistry, e.g., bipolar electrochemistry, ohmic microscopy, or contact glow discharge electrolysis. Here we study the course of the electrolyte potential during high voltage electrolysis in an electrolysis cell using two reversible hydrogen ele… Show more
