Question: How would the cyclic voltammetry shown in Fig. 8.53a differ if (a) The Os(IV) complex decomposed rapidly; (b) Os(III) is oxidized in a single, rapid

How would the cyclic voltammetry shown in Fig. 8.53a differ if 

(a) The Os(IV) complex decomposed rapidly; 

(b) Os(III) is oxidized in a single, rapid two-electron step to Os(V)?


Figure 8.53a.
