Potential-pH Diagram of Silver Construction of the Diagram—Its Applications to the Study of the Properties of the Metal, its Compounds, and its Corrosion

On the basis of methods and conventions previously described (1) and using the available thermodynamic and electrochemical data, the potential-pH diagram of silver has been constructed. A derived diagram showing domains of corrosion, passivity, and passivation is also presented. © 1951, The Electrochemical Society, Inc. All rights reserved.
