Resumo
The electrocatalytic oxidation of d-sorbitol on a polycrystalline platinum electrode, in perchloric aqueous medium, was studied by cyclic voltammetry under varying sweep rate, potential limits, stirring, temperature, pH and concentration of d-sorbitol. A value of about 50 kJ mol-1 was obtained for the apparent activation enthalpy of the oxidation reaction at 0.1 V vs. sme. The experimental rate equation is i = kCd-sorb 0.4CH+ -0.3 .exp[ 0.4 FE RT], valid for [d-sorbitol] < 0.1 mol dm-3 and pH < 1.
