What is the difference between limiting current and diffusion current?

The limiting current is defined as the limiting value of a current that is approached as the rate of charge-transfer to an electrode is increased. The diffusion current is defined as a current in a semiconductor caused by the diffusion of holes and/or electrons.

What is limiting current?

In a reactor where electrochemistry is being conducted and electron exchange is taking place, the ions around a given electrode will permit a rapid initial electron current. But what happens after a few moments and the initial "rush" to the electrode is over? It's the ability of ions to diffuse through the electrolyte and get next to the electrode to continue the reaction that will govern the rate at which it preceeds. That sets the limiting current. Limiting current is the current flowing "out" or "in" an electrode in a reactor after the reaction begins and ion mobility takes control of the rate or speed of the reaction.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of limiting a negotiator's authority?

One advantage of limiting a negotiator's authority is the fact that you retain the ability to make the ultimate decision. A disadvantage to limiting a negotiator's authority means you don't realize the full impact of their negotiation skills.
