Gruel means a thin watery soup, stretching nourishment out as far as

Porridge is oatmeal hydrated with hot water or milk.
It's a nourishing breakfast, esp. on cold Scottish mornings.

No, I know you don't. It's just a question of words. Maybe 'disregard'

Yes, but you see, Mr. Woodgate, I have a handle on this "quantum

I have to doubt that, because my words refer to an *action*, not an

One problem is, the only

Hello,

The difference between overvoltage and overpotential is very subtle and, as
far as I'm concerned, it's the same thing and as said at the end of your
definition, I use them interchangeably, since for me, it's obvious that both
electrodes have overvoltage.
To answer your previous question, if the applied AC signal is lower than OCV
+ summ (overpotential), then no current will flow in the solution because no
reaction will occur. That's undoubtful.
However, it comes to my mind that you'll be able to measure a "faradaic
current"
(as far as I remember, that's the term) in the external circuit, due to the
charge/discharge of the
Helmoltz double layer capacitance located at each electrode/solution
interface, due to electrons and positive charges (deficit of electrons)
accumulated on the electrode side of each interfaces that flow in the
electric circuit. The ions in the electrolyte would not be involved in this
phenomena.

Best regards.

Hmmm. How many devices do you have? In all the PCI designs I have
seen, each device gets a separate copies of the PCI clock. This
includes designs such as yours where all the devices are "on-board."

I have at least 4 pci devices so I'll use a zero delay buffer as you
suggested then.

I am after water with an R>18[Mohm/cm]

Water over 18.2Mohm/cm@25C doesn't exist. At room temperature
it spontaneously forms H+ and OH- Ions (and H3O+ Ions?
My memory fails me on that one).

Also, at what temperature? Ultrapure changes resistivity
4.5% per degree C @25C.

Also what is the best way of storing ultra pure water

It doesn't exist. You need to purify it on the spot. Ultrapure
water will dissolve anything it possibly can, and you want to give
it as little time leaching chloride from plastics and dissolving
metals and glass as possible. Making pure water is difficult,
and keeping it that way is impossible

Should I dispense it in to several small bottles with pipette lids?

No. To stay even close to 18.2Mohm/cm@25C you must start with
vacuum degassed ultrapure water and then never let it contact
air.

O2 dissolved in the water makes it better at attacking metals
(and lowering the resistivity) and dissolved CO2 will make
carbonic acid, which then attack the metal. You will get
lots of CO2 in the water even though the air doesn't have
much because CO2 dissolves so well, and ultrapure water has
little or no buffering capacity.

I recall something about pure water in sonoluminescence. There's a
whole article on how to do sonoluminescence in the Feb. 1995
Scientific American in the "The Amateur Scientist" column (I've got
all of the "Amateur Scientist" columns on a CD that's for sale
inexpensiely on the web, I strongly recommend it for anyone with even
a mild interest in science).
The article discusses getting the air gases out of distilled water
by boiling it, then sealing the container before letting it cool.
Sonoluminescence is a neat effect in itself, and apparently no one
yet knows how the light is generated.
