Abstract

Concentrated metal amalgams may be deposited as a 4000-A. layer upon a rotating platinum electrode by simultaneously depositing mercury and metal from a nitric acid solution of mercurous (or mercuric) and metal ion. The potential-time curve obtained by chemical stripping with mercurous (or mercuric) nitrate can be predicted within experimental error. A potential-time expression is given, allowing for the changes in activity coefficients of mercury and the metal in amalgams, the latter being the most important correction.
