How to measure overpotential?
Thread Content
Dear sea friends: How can we simply measure the overpotential of a conductor? What is the overpotential for lead? Can the overpotential of lead be measured directly with a multimeter? This post was last edited by Wang Yibo on 2009-2-7 14:51]
Can anyone answer me? Looking forward to it----------
Overpotential is not a parameter related to the conductor; it is a parameter associated with electrode reactions. It represents the difference between the potential of an electrode reaction and its standard potential. It falls under the field of electrochemistry, so you can ask colleagues in this field for more information
As for the electrode potential of metals like lead, I do know how to measure it, but I’m not familiar with overpotential.
