Question

Use the data in Table 25.6 in ATKINS for the exchange current density and transfer coefficient
for the reaction:

2 H+ + 2e- → H2

on nickel at 25oC to determine what current density would be needed to obtain an overpotential
of 0.20 V as calculated from:

(a) the Butler-Volmer equation
(b) the Tafel equation.

Is the validity of the Tafel approximation affected at overpotentials of 0.4 V and more?
