“…E q = 0 ) in acetonitrile not only practically coincides with the magnitude of the difference between their "electrochemical work functions," but is also smaller than the difference between PZC of the Hg and pcSn electrodes in an aqueous solution of a surfaceinactive electrolyte by a mere 0.020 V. This result once again confirms the notion we put forth previously about a weak hydrophilicity of tin. A study of the structure of DEL on the Ga, In-Ga, and Tl-Ga electrodes in eight different solvents shows that the chemisorption interaction between a metal and a solvent at q = 0 increases in the series Tl-Ga < In-Ga < Ga for as long as the metal's work function increases [19]. However, the data that were obtained on a Hg electrode fail to fit this series.…”
