Gouy Chapman Model

The number of carriers in a given energy plane
(distance away from electrode) is found to be

The potential profile is
In all cases
For a 11 electrolyte (e.g. NaF, CaSO4)

Too large a Cd and too fast a change! Why does
Gouy Chapman Fail? The model assumes that the
ions are point charges. As increases,
the separation between the metal and charged
electrolyte decreases to 0. Not
Realistic! Sterns Modification Accounts for
1. Finite ionic size 2. Additional
radial increase due to solvation of
ions

Thus, must have plane of closest approach!

Recall capacitance is inversely additive!
Exactly what we saw from Helmholtz.

x2 OHP
Thus apparent concentration of Oz is similar to
that of the electrolyte. That is to say we have
an electrostatic driving force attracting the
cationic O or repelling anionic O. If is
, then cationic O repelled and anionic O
attracted.
So, So, we will see changes in i0 and k0 at
different SE and Oz, which is what
prompted this study/theory.
Note NO absolute value of charge. z is the
signed charge on O.

The at x2 is being depleted due to -
- interactions.
Of course, x2, and thus, , vary with
electrolyte size/type. Also, we have assumed NO
specific adsorption of SE anions, O, or R.
Thus, the Frumkin Correction is limited, but it
works well in most cases.

Adsorption Effects on Cyclic Voltammetric
Traces Non Specific Adsorption Long-range
electrostatic forces perturb the distribution of
ions near the electrode surface. Specific
Adsorption Strong interaction between the
adsorbate (Ads) and the electrode material causes
the formation of an adlayer on the electrode
surface. Need a way to relate 1.
