Data presentation
A variety of different methods are available for presentation
of data: the choice of method is dependent upon what you
wish to portray, and the data that are available.
Portray phases
present at different
activities of
components of
interest.

Eh – pH diagram
Useful in that both Eh and pH are
readily measurable under many
lab conditions.
Eh measures activity of electrons
(as voltage changes)
pH measures activity of protons
(H+ ions)
fo2 – pH diagram
Topologically identical to Eh-pH
diagram but easier to read.
Activity of O2 can be related to Eh
through thermodynamic
parameters of the half-cell
reaction:
Eh = ∆G°H O/2F +

(4.5756T)(log aO2)/4F –
(4.5756T)(pH)/F
