I am performing microbial fuel cell analysis and I want to find out the relationship between the current produced and the surface area of the electrode.
You can see the equations in Page 200 of the attached file.
For example, if the reaction is diffusion-controlled, and then perform Cyclic voltammetry at various scan rates. Using Randles−Sevcik equation and then electrode surface area can be examined!
Run the CV. Obtain the values of peak current (I), scanrate (v) and plug in all the other parameters (concentartion of bulk solution C, number of electrons involved inredox reaction n, diffusion coefficient of molecule in solution,D) in Randles-Sevick equation to find the area (A).
Dr Gudipati Neeraja Sinha, can we get all the value of other parameters (concentration of bulk solution C, number of electrons involved in redox reaction n, diffusion coefficient of molecule in solution,D) from CV value? Or we actually need to know in advance those parameters value?
