Abstract:Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy has been applied for investigation of the hydrogen evolution kinetics at the electrochemically polished Bi(001) plane, and the complicated reaction mechanism (slow adsorption and charge-transfer steps) has been established. The charge-transfer resistance and adsorption capacitance values depend noticeably on the electrode potential applied. The adsorption resistance is maximal in the region of electrode potential E min = −0.65 V vs. (Hg|Hg2Cl2|4 M KCl), where the minimal values of constant phase element (CPE) coefficient Q have been calculated. The fractional exponent α CPE values of the CPE close to unity (α CPE ≥ 0.94 and weakly dependent on the electrode potential and pH of solution ($$c_{{\text{HClO}}_4 } \leqslant 2 \times 10^{ - 3} \,{\text{M}}c_{{\text{HClO}}_4 } \leqslant 2 \times 10^{ - 3} \,{\text{M}}$$) have been obtained, indicating the weak deviation of Bi(001)|HClO4 + H2O interface from the ideally flat capacitive electrode. Q differs only very slightly from double-layer capacitance C dl values in the whole region of potentials and $$c_{{\text{HClO}}_{\text{4}} } c_{{\text{HClO}}_{\text{4}} } $$, investigated.
