4. Note on Electrolytic Conduction
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 September 2014
Extract
It is commonly said that there is a resistance to a current at the surface of contact of a solid conductor and an electrolyte. Some good authorities, however, say that we have as yet no proof of this, as the effects observed may be due to polarisation. It is obvious that, if the reverse electromotive force due to polarisation contain a term directly proportional to the strength of the current, the ordinary methods of measurement would not enable us to distinguish this from the surface resistance above mentioned.
