Abstract — A key idea of the possibility of describing electrochemical systems and processes in terms of Maxwell’s electromagnetic theory is presented. This is an alternative to conventional Nernst–Tafel concept based on the Arrhenius hypothesis about electrolytic dissociation, which, despite of its minor heuristic value, is adhered to in many branches of chemistry for more than a century, thus, decelerating the progress. Fundamental laws of thermodynamics and electromagnetism enable us to use sufficiently elementary mathematical tools when quantitatively describing and predicting not only equilibrium states, but also transient processes with no use of model concepts.
