This study of electrochemical reactions occurring in an aqueous medium near an electrode uses Pourbaix pH diagrams to predict, on a thermodynamic basis for a given element, equilibrium states of all possible reactions between an element, its ions, and its solid and gaseous compounds in the presence of water. Diagrams provide data concerning possible reactions important in the study of corrosion in aqueous media. This book explains methods of establishing pH equilibrium diagrams.
