Notes:
Preferential adsorption of a polyvalent ion may give rise to a series resistive component in the interfacial impedance when the ion is a minor component of the system. Studies of the potential dependence of this component by modulation polarography suggest that the adsorption of polyvalent cations at a negatively charged mercury electrode is dependent on both the nature of the polyvalent cation and on the identity of the univalent cation when the concentration of the latter ion greatly exceeds that of the polyvalent ion. Results for chloride solutions indicate that polyvalent cations are less strongly adsorbed when the electrode is positively charged than simple theory would predict.
