Abstract
It is shown that the polarization capacity of an electrode can be measured readily with the aid of a ballistic galvanometer. The polarization capacity per unit apparent area can be considered to be approximately proportional to the roughness of the surface of the electrode. Results obtained on silver electrodes illustrate the influence of pretreatment and aging.Keywords
