On the Equilibrium Properties of Single Crystalline Copper Electrodes

Abstract
It is shown that, when true equilibrium conditions exist in the aqueous system studied, no single crystal orientation exposed to solution spontaneously changes with time. Also, under these conditions no differences in equilibrium potential can be measured between different orientations. Data are offered which suggest that some previous measurements possibly were not the result of equilibrium properties, but rather were produced by kinetic phenomena.
