Place the cap on the electrochemical cell, then insert the working and counter electrodes into two of the holes. We will now prepare the reference solution; a 0.01 M solution of silver nitrite in acetonitrile. Prepare the solution in a volumetric flask and add it into the reference electrode tube Ossila.com Ossila Limited © 2021... - Page 25 Please allow 30 minutes for the potentiostat to warm up after turning on. Once warmed up, start the Ossila Electrochemistry software and select the “Voltammetry” tab. Ensure that the potentiostat is detected by the software.

Page 27: Maintenance
The cell and electrodes should always be thoroughly rinsed immediately after each experiment with the solvent that was used in your electrolyte. Always set the cell to dry, preferably in an oven, before you prepare your electrolyte. This helps reduce contamination of your solution from water. Ossila.com Ossila Limited © 2021... -
