Abstract: | Cyclic voltammograms of hexaamminecobalt complex have been measured in high pH solutions. The spectroscopic result suggested that hydroamminecobalt complex adsorbed on the electrode surface during cathodic polarization, and this species grew to form cobalt hydroxide after a long time of electrolysis. In the anodic process, the reaction orders for pH and NH3 were both |1|. Based on these results, the reaction mechanism has been discussed.The effect of light on the electrode process has been studied by irradiating with ultraviolet light of the 254 nm mercury resonance line. It has been indicated that the hydroxoammine complex is decomposed to cobalt hydroxide and free ligand under light. |
