lodide-iodine and bromide-bromine electrode processes at platinum electrodes in nitromethane solutions are studied. Results were obtained by means of the rotating disk electrode technique under a wide range of experimental conditions. Diffusional and kinetic parameters were evaluated for the different reactions involved. This study supports the behavior found for the same halogen species inother non-aqueous solvents. The differences encountered are mainly related to specific properties of the solvent on ion solvation and on the stability of the X3- complex.
