Abstract
The disagreement between experimental and calculated numbers of nuclei formed on the surface during electrocrystallization under potentiostatic conditions is shown to be caused by disregard of the kinetics of the electrochemical stage of this process. A new equation is proposed which allows correctly determining the mentioned number.
