Question: How many electrons or protons are transported through the double layer in each second when the Pt,H 2 |H + , Pt|Fe 3+ ,Fe 2+

How many electrons or protons are transported through the double layer in each second when the Pt,H2 |H+, Pt|Fe3+,Fe2+, and Pb,H2 |H+ electrodes are at equilibrium at 25°C? Take the area as 1.0 cm2 in each case. Estimate the number of times each second a single atom on the surface takes part in a electron transfer event, assuming an electrode atom occupies about (280 pm)2 of the surface.
