Abstract
Two reversible electrode reactions that are connected by either reversible or totally irreversible chemical reactions are theoretically analysed by staircase cyclic voltammetry. The dependence of peak potentials on the thermodynamic and kinetic parameters is calculated. If the mechanism is permanently in equilibrium, the stability constant of the reversible chemical reaction can be determined. Furthermore, the critical kinetic parameter is determined and its application to the measurement of the forward rate constant of the chemical reaction is demonstrated. Also, the influence of the kinetics of electrode reactions is discussed.
