A simple technique for measuring the intensity of polarized light reflected from an electrode is described. Results for the adsorption on platinum of oxygen, hydrogen, halides, methanol, formaldehyde and formic acid are discussed. The method is particularly sensitive for oxygen and halides and the optical properties of the former can be determined within limits.
