Influence of electrode radius on apparent lability of complex of amalgam forming ions

A theory of reversible electrode reaction preceded by the reversible chemical reaction is developed for square-wave voltammetry of amalgam forming ions on spherical electrode. It is shown that the lability parameter is diminished as the radius of electrode is decreased. This is in agreement with the previous calculations and shows that the diffusion of amalgam within the spherical electrode has no influence on the apparent lability of metal complex
