Preferred Label : exchange current;
Detailed label : exchange current of an electrode reaction;
IUPAC definition : The common value I0 of the anodic and cathodic partial currents when the reaction
is at equilibrium \[I_{0} I_{{a}} - I_{{c}}\] For an electrode at equilibrium at which
only one reaction is significant I 0. When more than one reaction is significant
at a given electrode, subscripts to I0 may be used to distinguish exchange currents.
I is not usually zero when only one of these reactions is at equilibrium.;
