Preferred Label : cathodic transfer coefficient;
Detailed label : cathodic transfer coefficient, αc;
IUPAC definition : For a reaction with a single rate-determining step \[\frac{\alpha _{{c}}}{\nu }
-\frac{R\ T}{n\ F}\ (\frac{ (\ln ( I_{{c}} ))}{ E})_{T,p,c_{i},...}\] where αc is
the cathodic transfer coefficient (number), R is the gas constant, T is the thermodynamic
temperature, and ν the stoichiometric number giving the number of identical activated
complexes formed and destroyed in the completion of the overall reaction as formulated
with the transfer of n electrons.;
