Problem 1: Diffusion Only The thin film A is obtained by an electroreduction of A+cation at the surface of an inert electrode: A++eA Assuming that the surface reaction is so fast that A+is immediately converted to A as it reaches the surface and that the transport is governed by diffusion only. a) Show that the unsteady-state concentration profile of A+in the transport layer can be described as: tCA+=z22CA+ b) Define the appropriate boundary conditions c) Show that the steady-state concentration profile of A+in the transport loyer can be described ast CA+=(z)CA+b where CA+is the concentration of A+along the diffusion layer and is the thickness of transport layer
