(Solved): Cyclic voltammetry was performed to determine the redox potential and diffusion coefficient of potas ...



Cyclic voltammetry was performed to determine the redox potential and diffusion coefficient of potassium ferricyanide. 10 runs were performed; 10 mVs, 20 mVs, 30 mVs, 40 mVs, 50 mVs, 60, mVs 70 mVs, 80 mVs, 90 mVs, and 100 mVs. The data below was retrieved.Cyclic Voltammetry

From the plots of the versus scan rate determine the slope of the best-fitting line. a. Slope of the graph versus scan rate b. Slope of the graph versus scan rate We use the slope from (a) for the diffusion coefficient of ferricyanide, and the slope from (b) for the the diffusion coefficient of ferrocyanide. 3. Using the Randles-Šev?ik equation and the slope from the graph of versus scan rate , calculate the diffusion coefficient for potassium ferricyanide.
