10. Electrode Potentials  know the IUPAC convention for writing half- equations for electrode reactions.  Know and be able to use the conventional representation of cells.  Know that standard electrode potential, E, refers to conditions of 298 K, 100 kPa and 1.00 mol dm −3 solution of ions.

11. Half-cell: an element in two oxidation states.

12. Zn 2+ (aq) + 2 e –  Zn(s)

13. Zn 2+ (aq) + 2e¯ -> Zn(s)E° = - 0.76V The electrode potential of the half cell indicates its tendency to lose or gain electrons.

14. The standard electrode potential of a half-cell, is the e.m.f of a cell compared with a standard hydrogen half-cell, measured at 298 K with a solution concentration of 1 mol dm -3 and a gas pressure of 100KPa

15. Standard Conditions Concentration 1.0 mol dm -3 (ions involved in ½ equation) Temperature 298 K Pressure 100 kPa (if gases involved in ½ equation) Current Zero (use high resistance voltmeter)

18. Zn Zn  Zn 2+ + 2 e - oxidation Cu 2+ + 2 e -  Cu reduction - electrode anode oxidation + electrode cathode reduction electron flow At this electrode the metal loses electrons and so is oxidised to metal ions. These electrons make the electrode negative. At this electrode the metal ions gain electrons and so is reduced to metal atoms. As electrons are used up, this makes the electrode positive. Cu

22. Emf = E = E (positive terminal) - E (negative terminal )

25. Pt(s) | H 2 (g) | H + (aq) || Cu 2+ (aq) | Cu(s)

28. GOLDEN RULE The more +ve electrode gains electrons (+ charge attracts electrons)

29. Electrodes with negative emf are better at releasing electrons (better reducing agents).
