As our knowledge of the mechanism of electrode processes increases, it becomes more and more apparent that the kinetic currents first observed by R. Brdicka and by K. Wiesner in the 1940's are very widely encountered. Very many electrode pro- cesses contain a chemical stage. * This is true primarily of elec- trode processes that involve organic compounds. Therefore, to understand the mechanism of electrode processes and, particular- ly, to correctly interpret the results of polarographic investiga- tions, it is important to know the characteristics and relationships controlling the chemical...
