18 represents the process ( ) ( ) 0 → Re d ρ0 Ox + ρox + e −vac ← red when equilibrium between the redox species and their surroundings is established. This free energy difference therefore corresponds with the redox potential of the electron in the redox couple with the reference state for the electron in vacuum. This is equal to the chemical potential of the electron in the redox system in its standard state (equal concentration of Ox+ and Red) and can be designated as the Fermi energy of the electron in a redox system in the same way as it was defined for metals (cf.
Overvoltage means the potential difference between the potential of the electrode under current and the potential at equilibrium for the appropriate charge transfer reaction, the potential being in both cases referred to the same reference electrode. However, for electron transfer and ion transfer reactions, this exponential relation results from different physical principles. While electrons can pass the energy barrier in the electric double layer via tunneling, ions have to go over this barrier.
In this case, the counter charge in the electrolyte cannot be represented by a layer of ions in the outer Helmholtz plane, but extends over some distance into the space of the electrolyte. The reason is that the accumulation of the excess charge in the Helmholtz double layer leads to a relatively large local increase in the concentration which, in turn, exerts a chemical driving force for back diffusion into the bulk of the electrolyte. Therefore, the excess ions and with it the electric field extend into the bulk until the electric and chemical forces are balanced.
