Abstract

Solution of the diffusion problem applicable to steady state reduction at the ideal streaming mercury electrode are presented, with special attention being given to the influence of stream contraction caused by the gravity. To eliminate the convection occurring in the layer between the streaming mercury and the electrolytic solution, a new method have been invented, in this case the solution being tested was streamed with same velocity of the streaming mercury. Experiment have been made in order to compare the experimental value with the theoretical value and the experimental diffusion current was approached more to the theoretical value than the value obtained by earlier form of the streaming mercury electrode used by Heyrovsky.
