Electrochemistry
2
OIL RIG Electrochemistry Oxidation is loss (of e-)
Reduction is gain (of e-)
3
LEO the lion goes GER Lose electrons = Oxidation
Gain electrons = Reduction
4
Balancing Acidic Reactions
Split the reaction into two halves Balance the common element on the two sides. Balance the Oxygen by adding water to the opposing side Balance the hydrogen by adding H+ ions to the opposing side Balance the overall charge by adding electrons
5
Redox Reactions in Acid
Al + MnO4-1 Al3+ + Mn2+
6
MnO4-1+ Fe2+ Fe3+ + Mn2+
7
Cr2O HNO2 Cr NO3-1
8
C + H+ + SO42- CO2 + SO2
9
Basic Redox Calculate the charge of P in PO4-3
Calculate the charge of Cr in Cr2O7-2
10
Steps Split into two half reactions Balance the common ion
Balance the charge of the common ion by using electrons Balance the overall charge by using OH- Balance the hydrogen by adding H2O
11
Balancing Basic Redox Reactions
Break into two halves Balance common element Balance Oxygen by adding water to opposing side Balance hydrogen by adding H+ ions to opposing side Balance overall charge by adding electrons Get rid of H+ by adding OH- to both sides (H + OH = H2O). Cancel out waters from both sides. Find least common multiple of electrons Combine two halves.

Reduction is gain (of e-)
18
LEO the lion goes GER Lose electrons = Oxidation
Gain electrons = Reduction
19
An Ox and a Red Cat Cathode – where reduction takes place (GER)
Red Cat (Reduction at the Cathode) Anode – where oxidation takes place (LEO) An Ox (Anode has Oxidation)
20
FAT CAT Electrons travel From Anode To CAThode in a voltaic or electrolytic cell
21
Electrolytic Cells vs. Voltaic Cells
A cell which contains a nonspontaneous reaction caused by passing a current through the solution Example: solution with wire connecting the two Galvanic or Voltaic cells, are done by spontaneous reactions Example: batteries
22
In one beaker, there is a solution of Iron (II) with an iron electrode immersed in the liquid. A second beaker contains a solution of Cadmium (II) with a cadmium electrode immersed into the liquid. The two beakers are connected by a salt bridge, and the following reaction takes place. Fe + Cd2+ Fe2+ + Cd
23
A solution of Cu2+ with a Cu electrode and a solution of Zn2+ with a Zn electrode. The Cu electrode is becoming bigger while the Zn electrode is becoming smaller.
24
A solution of sodium chloride and water has a current passed through it. As the current flows through the container, hydrogen gas begins to form on one electrode, while chlorine gas begins to form on the other.
25
Starter 4/28/14 1) Pick up a white board, eraser, and Expo
(***DO NOT WASTE THE EXPO DRAWING RANDOM THINGS***) 2) Get out homework of Electric Cells 3) KEEP HW on your desk but clear desk of everything else. All you need is: Whiteboard Expo Eraser HW: Electric Cells
26
Spontaneity of the Reaction
If E is positive the reaction is _____________ If E is negative the reaction is ____________
27
Cu + Zn2+ Cu2+ + Zn
28
Na+ + H2O Na + O2
29
Electroplating 1 mole of e- = Coulombs Amperes = Coulombs/sec
30
Remember If solving for Amps, that is equal to Coulombs per second. Solve for Coulombs and then divide by the number of seconds
