| Abstract: | The electrochemical reactions of a copper electrode in Na2S solutions were studied using cyclic voltammetry, potentiostatic and galvanostatic measurements. In addition surface examination and morphological studies were applied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive analysis of X-rays (EDAX). There are three anodic peaks were found in the anodic branch of the voltammogram’s. These peaks may be corresponding successively to the formation of Cu2S, CuS and Cu2O. On the other hand, the cathodic branch contains four peaks. These peaks correspond to the reduction of copper oxide and copper sulfide formed on the anodic branch. |
