Abstract
NOT only the adsorption of ions, but also the adsorption of undissociated molecules, depends on the direction and strength of the electrical field at the interface between the adsorbing body and the solution. This circumstance is illustrated by the electrocapillary curves which are obtained if a solution in contact with mercury contains organic, substances.
