If I obtain a good fit between an experimental voltammogram and a simulation, does this mean that the selected mechanism and parameters are correct?

If I obtain a good fit between an experimental voltammogram and a simulation, does this mean that the selected mechanism and parameters are correct?

No. A complicated experimental voltammogram can probably be reasonably well described by a number of different mechanisms. It is important to examine the changes in the voltammograms over a range of scan rates and concentrations. Even if a series of experimental voltammograms run over a range of scan rates are well fit by a single set of simulation parameter values, the sensivity of the fit to each of the parameters of interest must be explored.
