Abstract

We modeled the processes of growth and dissolution of small amounts of deposit on the solid electrode. Quasi-stationary diffusion method solved the basic problem of growth and dissolution of the semi-spherical nuclei deposit. Equations are obtained for current–voltage curves and chronoamperogram for reversible and irreversible electrode processes of electrodissolution of deposit nuclei. We have derived relations for the peak current and peak potentials of the current–voltage curve.
