What is iR drop in Electrochemistry

Hey Folks in this video we will be talking about what is iR drop, sometimes called Ohmic drop or voltage drop. iR drop tends to cause problems in electrochemistry experiments, most noticeably cyclic voltammetry, and is the result of solution resistance between the working and reference electrode.
