The adsorption of CO[sub 2] on transition metal electrodes was characterized by means of pseudocapacity measurements. It turned out that the metal with high pseudocapacity in CO[sub 2]-saturated solutions are promising electrocatalysts for the electrochemical reduction of CO[sub 2]. A correlation was found between the electronic structure of transition metals and their pseudocapacity and the current efficiency of the reduction of CO[sub 2], respectively.
