title: Amperometric responses to acetylene, ethylene, and methane by a Clark-type oxygen electrode.
abstract: Hydrogen-conditioned Clark electrodes exposed to successive acetylene samples displayed a decreasing curvilinear response. Slight electrode responses are also effected by saturated ethylene solutions. Thus, amperometric measurements of hydrogen or carbon monoxide in the aqueous environment by these electrodes are perturbated by the presence of acetylene and to a much lesser extent by ethylene. Methane-saturated solutions induced no electrode response.
