The Randles-Sevcik Equation
For a substrate with a reversible redox reaction, at a planar disk
electrode, in an unstirred solution, the peak current during linear
sweep, or cyclic voltammetry, is given by the Randles–Sevcik equation:
The potential where this occurs is given by:
where
= current peak during anodic scan (A)
= current peak during cathodic scan (A)
= potential at current peak for anodic scan (V)
= potential at current peak for cathodic scan (V)
= half potential as determined by cyclic voltammetry (V)
n
= the number of electrons transferred to (or from) the substrate
molecule
A
= area of the exposed surface of the electrode (cm
2
)
for an oxidation (anodic scan)
for a reduction (cathodic scan)
