Electrode Kinetic Studies of the Hydroquinone-Benzoquinone System and the Reaction between Hydroquinone and Ammonia in Propylene Carbonate: Application to the Indirect Electroanalytical Sensing of Ammonia

The oxidation of hydroquinone and reduction of benzoquinone have been studied by cyclic voltammetry at glassy carbon electrodes in propylene carbonate. Diffusion coefficients of the different species obtained from chronoamperometric measurements with use of microdisk electrodes were 2.7 ( 0.3 X 10-6...
