Question

True False The reference electrode is connected to the blue alligator clip. (False)
True False  In the cyclic voltammetry experiment, when the potential is scanned in the negative direction, ferricyanide is oxidized to ferrocyanide.
True False  In order to minimize the potential drop across the solution, the reference electrode should be as close as possible to the counter electrode.
True False  A reference electrode is useful because it has a constant potential drop at low currents.
True False  We add a lot of salt to electrochemical solutions to facilitate electron transfer and make reactions diffusion limited.

The first one is false however I need to know the last 4. I only have one attempt left on this homework so please do not answer if you are unsure thank you.

Answer 1

In the cyclic voltammetry experiment, when the potential is scanned in the negative direction, ferricyanide is oxidized to ferrocyanide. False

In order to minimize the potential drop across the solution, the reference electrode should be as close as possible to the counter electrode.     False

A reference electrode is useful because it has a constant potential drop at low currents.   True

We add a lot of salt to electrochemical solutions to facilitate electron transfer and make reactions diffusion limited. True
