| Summary: | With especial regard to hydrogen electrode, the theoretical fundamentals of electrode potential, the most important
reference electrodes and the electrode potential measurement have been discussed. In the case of the hydrogen electrode, it have been
emphasised that there is no equilibrium between the hydrogen molecule (H2) and the hydrogen (H+), hydronium
(H3O+) ion in the
absence of a suitable catalyst. Taking into account the practical aspects as well, the theorectical basis of working of hydrogen,
copper-copper sulphate, mercury-mercurous halide, silver-silver halide, metal-metal oxide, metal-metal sulphate and
“Thalamid” electrodes, has been discussed. |
