The electrical double layer – reaction
Specific Adsorption of Anions
C+C+Σ δ− + Σ δ+ = 0
This has a profound effect on the rate of electrochemical reactions:
1. It blocks the active sites for the adsorption of the reactant.2. It acts as co-catalyst (OH formation from water).3. It can alter the reactant adsorption energy.

Langmuir–Hinshelwood Mechanism:
Begins with Eley−Rideal Mechanism:M–CO + H2O → M + CO2 + 2H+
- strongly absorbing molecule- it can be used as an indicator (probe) for OHad formation
CO: carbon monoxide oxidation

ORR: oxygen reduction reaction
- at high potentials the coverage of anions 1-ΘAad increases so much that the oxygen can not find any space to adsorb
Pt poly.
- It can be used as an indicator for high anion-surface attraction- Or it can be used as an indicator for high anion coverage (ΘAad )

N2O: nitrous oxide reduction reaction
reduction of nitrous oxide:
M + N2O → M–O + N2
M–O + H+ +e → M–OHM–OH + H+ +e → M + H2O
- weakly absorbing molecule
- at the potencial of the weakest interaction
of supporting electrolyte with surface the
current density is the highest
- it can be used as an indicator (probe) for
