TL;DR: In this paper, the potential of zero total charge (pztc) of the first and second kind is discussed and the conditional nature of the notions pzfc and the charge of the double layer in the presence of strong chemisorption of ions is demonstrated and the difference between the formal and true coefficients of charge transfer is emphasized.

TL;DR: In this article, the potentials of a Pt/Pt electrode in methanol solutions are determined by adsorbed hydrogen, based on the charging curves and the potentiostatic curves of a platinum electrode measured after its contact with methanoline, and the analysis of these curves shows, also, that under definite conditions, a predominant chemisorption of particles with the composition HCO occurs on platinized platinum in metanol solutions.

TL;DR: In this paper, a semi-quantitative interpretation has been given to the dependence of the differential capacity of the dense layer on the electrode charge, when passing from mercury to gallium, assuming the energy of interaction of chemisorbed water dipoles with the metal surface to increase.

TL;DR: The notion of zero charge (pzc) and the relevant term were introduced 50 years ago and proved to be an important electrochemical characteristic of metal and to play a major role in electrocapillary and electrokinetic phenomena, electric double-layer structure, adsorption of ions and neutral organic molecules on the electrode, wetting phenomena, physicochemical mechanics of solids, photoemission of electrons from metal into solution, and in electrochemical kinetics as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the only value that can be unambiguously determined from the dependence of the current strength on the concentration of the supporting electrolyte is the charge of the particles in the bulk of the solution that are in equilibrium with the transition state of the reaction.
