It has been shown to proceed via a two‐step process to the metal. The intermediate Cr(II) species reacts with the solvent anions to form an insoluble compound, . The pseudo first‐order rate constant for the chemical step is , while the heterogeneous rate constant for the charge transfer is . The diffusion coefficient of Cr+3 was determined to be at 500°C. No adsorption of any species present in solution was found to occur on the vitreous carbon working electrode.Read More
