Abstract

Electrochemical behaviours on 1.0 mM methylviologen (<TEX>$MV^{2+}$</TEX>) in 100 mM NaCl+27 mM <TEX>$MgCl_2$</TEX> solution, without and with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), were studied. The intersection of two lines on <TEX>${\Delta}E_p$</TEX> (the difference between the anodic, <TEX>$E_{pa}$</TEX>, and the cathodic, <TEX>$E_{pc}$</TEX>, peak potentials) of the first and second redox waves vs. -log[SDS] plot was determined as a critical micelle concentration (CMC). When <TEX>$Mg^{2+}$</TEX> was added, the effective access of <TEX>$MV{\cdot}^+$</TEX> to the glassy carbon electrode surface became possible and the formation of micelles was retarded.
