For a reaction with a single rate-determining step αcν=R Tn F ((ln(|Ic|))E)T,p,ci,... where αc is the cathodic transfer
coefficient
(number), R is the
gas constant
, T is the
thermodynamic temperature
, and ν the
stoichiometric number
giving the number of identical activated complexes formed and destroyed in the completion of the overall reaction as formulated with the transfer of n electrons.
