Galvanostatic studies with low current density in 0.1 N KNO 3 medium reveal that reduction of oxygen at silver electrode is totally irreversible and in the range of oxygen concentration studied, 2.2‐306.3×10 −9 mole / cm 3 , the E ‐ log [0 2 ] plot consists of two straight lines, one has a slope of 0.12 volts/decade (C>1 ppm up to air‐saturated) and the other, 0.72 volts/decade (0.1
