Abstract:

Recently there are some studies in the literature where sonochemistry is combined with electrochemistry^[1,2],but the possible mechanisms only have been briefly described, the applications are seldom reported. Ultrasound at or near the electrode can accelerate the mass transport to and from it, activate its surface resulting from continuous cleaning and cavitation, so Chance the sensitivity^[2-3]. In this paper we introduce the possible mechanisms and its applications by examining the anodic stripping voltammetric determination of copper in the presence of ultrasound.
