Specialty Expressions: ELECTRODE POTENTIAL

ExpressionsDomainDefinition
Electrode potentialMiningA. The potential difference at the surface of separation between the electronic and electrolytic conductors that make up the electrode. In the terminology of corrosion it is sometimes called the open-circuit potential.b. The potential of a half-cell as measured against a standard reference half-cell. (references)
Electrode potentialPhysicsMore noble electrode potentials, e. g. those of silver or copper in sulphate, nitrate or other non-complex-forming solutions, and that of oxygen on an inert metal or oxide-film, are positive. More base potentials, e. g. those of zinc, magnesium and sodium, are negative. When complexes are formed, metal potentials become less noble or less positive. Source: European Union. (references)
