Water and Electrode-Solution Interfaces

Abstract

Water is so common, yet so complex. Our understanding of this substance has not matched its ubiquitous nature. The presence of water in any region results in a host of unsolved problems. This view is abundantly true at the electrode-solution interfaces which are the scene of the bulk of electrochemical phenomena. This report therefore is aimed at a discussion of water at electrode-solution interfaces. In particular. attention is directed towards the various ways in which interfacial water commands consideration in electrochemistry.
