Question

In this technique, the working potential is reversed upon reaching the initial set potential. For 10 points each:
[10h] Name this technique whose relevant variables are related in the Randles-Sevcik equation.
ANSWER: cyclic voltammetry [or CV; prompt on voltammetry]
[10m] In the three electrode setup for CV, there is a working, counter electrode, and an electrode of this name. Standard examples of these electrodes often use hydrogen, whose potential is set to zero.
ANSWER: reference electrode [accept standard reference electrode]
[10e] Cyclic voltammetry is used to study this class of reactions that involve electron transfers, and thus changes of oxidation states.
ANSWER: redox reactions [or reduction-oxidation reactions; prompt on reduction or oxidation alone]
