Electrode reaction rate constants
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-003674
Parameters that quantify the intrinsic speed of an electrochemical reaction occurring at an electrode surface. They describe the rate at which electrons are transferred across the electrode-electrolyte interface under specific conditions. These constants are influenced by factors such as temperature, electrode material, and the nature of the reacting species.
