Contents: The course helps the student to understand the nature of the electrochemical reactions and the peculiarities of electrochemical kinetics. The course also gives knowledge about modern electrochemical instrumental methods: steady state voltammetry, chronoamperometry, chronopotentiometry, rotating disk electrode voltammetry, cyclic voltammetry, microelectrode voltammetry, impedance, pulse and square-wave voltammetry. This knowledge includes mathematical description of the mentioned techniques with an explanation on how to use them to solve different problems of the electrochemical kinetics. The course includes practical exercises illustrating some of the electrochemical techniques and it gives a survey on electrochemical instrumentation.
