Title: Cyclic Voltammetry
Post by: jazlina308 on February 15, 2021, 02:20:05 AM

Hi everyone,

I would like to ask what factors affecting the intensity of the oxidation peak in cyclic voltammetry? I kept searching all over the internet but I found nothing.

Here I attached the image of the CV. Your assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

There is a known - and quite easy to find - formula describing theoretical peak current. Have you seen it?

Your CV curve doesn't contain any peaks, looks it is recorded for a pure solvent.

I'm sorry. No I haven't seen it yet. May be I'm not searching it thoroughly hehe.. Could you show me the equation? Thank you :)
