Electrocapillarity or electrocapillary phenomena are the phenomena related to changes in the surface energy (or interfacial tension) of the dropping mercury electrode (DME) as the electrode potential changes or the electrolytic solution composition and concentration change. The term `electro-capillary` is used to describe the change in mercury (.....
