Halogen electrodes, according to the authors, are the most convenient electrodes for thermodynamic studies of reactions involving halogens in molten alkali metal halides when the emf method is used. The authors measured the potential differences between the chlorine and bromine electrode and between the chlorine and iodine electrode in cells described here. From the results of measurements at different temperatures, the authors generalized interpolation relations between the potentials of the bromine and iodine electrode in molten alkalimetal bromides and iodides and their mixtures relative to the chlorine electrode in chlorides of the same metals, on one hand, and the temperature and cation's crystal radius on the other hand.
