Structure of the mercury/ethylene carbonate interface. Part 2.—Adsorption of iodide ion from solutions of constant ionic strength

Abstract

Differential capacity data for the mercury/solution interface in ethylene carbonate solutions of KPF₆+ KI at constant ionic strength are presented. From an analysis of the data it is shown that the standard free energy of adsorption of iodide ion from this solvent is larger than from protic solvents. Other parameters characterising the adsorption are compared with those obtained previously in other solvents.
