To bridge the structure gap, electrochemical reactions can be studied in flow cells with nm-sized catalyst particles deposited or fabricated on the cell walls. The understanding of the role of mass transport in such cells is now limited. To clarify the likely effects in this field, we analyze the simplest reaction scheme including intermediate desorption, readsorption, and subsequent reaction and show how the net rate of the formation of intermediate can be influenced by its diffusion in the liquid phase. With certain approximations, we derive analytical results describing reaction and diffusion near catalyst particles and in more remote regions in the simplest 1D case and more complex 2D and 3D situations.

Electrocatalysis as a catalytic process involving oxidation or reduction through the direct transfer of electrons is of key importance subject in various fields of chemistry and associated sciences. Heterogeneous electrocatalysis is especially important to the development of water oxidation and fuel cells catalysts. This paper presents the brief description of the electrocatalysis and the mechanism of electrochemical reactions. Different factors and their influence on electrocatalytic activity, have been discussed. Role of nanoparticles in electrocatalysis received a particular emphasis. Long-term tasks of electrocatalysis were also definied.

<p></p>This paper outlines a simple yet precise method for identifying the theoretical specific free enthalpy of electrochemical reactions on basis of the ideal gas law, equilibrium thermodynamics and Faraday's law, exploiting the normative role of the standard hydrogen electrode in electrochemistry. The result of this approach are discussed in relation to four battery cell reaction examples: LiCoO<sub>2</sub>/C<sub>6</sub>, LiFePO<sub>4</sub>/C<sub>6</sub>, sodium-sulfur (NAS) and NaCl–Ni (ZEBRA). The agreement between calculated and practical values is near-excellent for even stoichiometries which bespeaks the virtually ideal nature of reversible reactions and the quality of the practical optimization efforts alike. These findings highlight the principal nature of intrinsic thermodynamic limitation to equilibrium mass transfer and its key role towards understanding reversible chemical energy storage in a global sense.<br><p></p>
