Abstract

A method for computing the approximate value of the non-faradayic component of the total decay current in a pulse polarographic experiment is described. Undesirable effects of such component are discussed. The method employed is simpler than computing the non-faradayic current from RC measurements and has the advantage of being applied under actual polarographic working conditions.
