A process was carried on with Hg/HgO as a reference and with a continuous passage of CO2, and the CV was recorded before and after passage of CO2 (pH changes from 13 to 8). Also, in both the cases a fresh RHE was prepared and potential of reference vs RHE was measured, so that findings could be reported as per vs RHE instead of  vs Hg/HgO, but then I am confused because the RHE reference itself changes with pH. So is it sufficient to just ignore RHE shift because of pH changes or does it need to be considered, because with RHE shift considered, observation is quite correct and with RHE shift ignored, the observation is meaningless.
