Structure of electrical double layer at gold electrode in cyanide solution

The potential distribution in electrical double layer is calculated, basing on the data on the electrode charge and cyanide-ion adsorption at the gold electrode. It is shown that the integral capacitances of regions in the dense layer are not unambiguous functions of the electrode potential or charge per se, but depend also on the amount of specifically adsorbed ions I". A function is proposed for the describing of the I" dependence of the dense layer integral capacitances.
