α10 2.9902 0.0037

The rate constants are given for the model presented in Scheme 1. Forward and backward rate constants are α and β, respectively, and follow exponential voltage dependence as α0 = α00exp(z0fVmF/RT) and β0 = β00exp(z0bVmF/RT). The k0 column gives each of the rates at 0 mV, and the zk column indicates the equivalent valence in electronic charge units assigned to the transition. F is the Faraday constant, Vm is voltage, R is the universal gas constant, and T is the temperature in Kelvin.
