Abstract
The significance of the Heyrovsky-Ilkovic equation is discussed and the relationship between reversibility of the electrochemical reaction and polarographic reversibility critically examined. It is shown that even reversible electrochemical processes might yield D.C. polarograms of the irreversible type. The relationship between different types of electrode reactions and the production of A.C. polarographic waves is elucidated.
