ELECTROMICROGRAVIMETRIC STUDY OF THALLIUM UNDER POTENTIAL DEPOSITS ON GOLD IN ACID MEDIUM
A study of underpotential deposits (UPD) of Tl/Au was carried out by coupling microgravimetry to cyclic voltammetry in acid perchlorate medium. In the first place, it was found that in the potential region positive to UPD formation of thallium on gold, the recorded frequency did not vary, thus imply...
